What is the CPI?
The Corruption Perceptions Index is a composite indicator that measures perceived corruption in the public sector. It provides an annual comparative snapshot of 180 countries and territories. It assigns a score on a scale from 0 to 100 where 100 indicates no corruption and 0 signifies a highly corrupt environment. The index is based on expert assessments and surveys of businesspeople from 13 sources. See methodology video [Corruption Perceptions Index Explained | Transparency International].
What were Belgium’s results in the 2023 Corruption Perception Index ?
