- refurb 13y agoI hate to nitpick, but that link points to a survey on the perception of corruption, not actual corruption. I know it's near impossible to measure actual corruption, but other data points would be helpful.
- mtrimpe 13y agoI was wondering whether someone would nitpick about that, but given the audience I should've known. It's the closest proxy we have though, especially given the subjective nature of corruption.
- a-priori 13y agoKeep in mind that this doesn't measure corruption, but perceptions of corruption. If corruption exists, but is not obvious to the average person, then it won't be reflected in the Corruption Perceptions Index.
