The Corruption Perceptions Index 2013 ranks 177 countries and territories based on perceived levels of public sector corruption. Nearly 70% of countries score below 50, indicating a serious corruption problem. The index reveals that corruption is a major issue around the world, with no country achieving a perfect score. Regional breakdowns show that Eastern Europe/Central Asia, Middle East/North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa have the highest percentages of countries perceived as highly corrupt.

CORRUPTION PERCEPTIONS INDEX 2013.
Transparency International is the global civil society organisation leading the fight against corruption. Through more than 90 chapters worldwide and an international secretariat in Berlin, we raise awareness of the damaging effects of corruption and work with partners in government, business and civil society to develop and implement effective measures to tackle it. CORRUPTION PERCEPTIONS INDEX 2013 From children denied an education, to elections decided by money not votes, public sector corruption comes in many forms. Bribes and backroom deals dont just steal resources from the most vulnerable they undermine justice and economic development, and destroy public trust in leaders. But while the results of corruption are clear, the real extent of the problem is harder to pin down. Corruption is shadowy and secretive by nature. We all know corruption is a problem, but how bad is it, and what can be done? This is where the Corruption Perceptions Index comes in. Based on expert opinion, the index measures the perceived levels of public sector corruption in countries worldwide, scoring them from 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean). Covering 177 countries, the 2013 index paints a worrying picture. While a handful perform well, not one single country gets a perfect score. More than two-thirds score less than 50. The need for greater accountability is clear, and leaders cannot look the other way. But recognising the problem is only the first step governments need to turn pledges into actions. All citizens deserve bribe-free services, and leaders that are answerable to the public, not to powerful friends. Working together, we can make this a reality. www.transparency.org ISBN: 978-3-943497-49-6 息 2013 Transparency International. All rights reserved. Printed on 100% recycled paper.
