Key Factors Affecting the Corruption Perception Index
Political and Economic Environment:
The corruption phenomenon is greatly influenced by the political and economic environment, which is also impacted by monetary policy.
Level of GDP:
The prevalence of corruption is shown to be higher in countries with relatively low GDP per capita levels. Other than that, early developing countries frequently have lower ratings for corruption.
Country Size:
Large geographic areas and low population densities make nations more susceptible to corruption since it is challenging to monitor public officials in scattered areas.
