Outlook on Corruption Perception Index 

The Corruption Perception Index (CPI) ranks countries annually according to the corruption levels as seen by risk analysts, entrepreneurs, and normal citizens. Ratings range from 0 to 100, with 100 signifying behavior that is impressively free from corruption and 0 signifying severely corrupt behavior.

Determinants of Corruption Perception Index 

Political and Economic Environment:  

Monetary policy is influenced by the political and economic environment, which also has a significant impact on the corruption phenomenon. 

Level of GDP: 

It has been shown that countries with relatively low GDP per capita levels often have higher levels of corruption. Apart from that, early developing countries frequently have lower corruption rankings. 

Country Size: 

Countries with low population densities and broad geographic areas are more susceptible to corruption because it is challenging to police public officials in dispersed locations.
