THE CORRUPTION PERCEPTIONS
INDEX IS:
A global (168 countries/territories)
aggregate Index (up to 12 different data sources)
capturing perceptions (experts/business people)
of corruption (abuse of power for private gain)
in the public sector (public officials and institutions)
THE METHOD
STEP 1 – Select data sources
STEP 2 – Rescale data sources
STEP 3 – Calculate the average
STEP 4 – Report uncertainty
INTERPRETING THE RESULTS
Score:
On a scale of 0 – 100, where 0 means highly corrupt and 100 means very clean.
Allows for comparison with scores from previous years (2014, 2013, 2012): The CPI
scores from 2015 can be compared with the CPI scores from the previous 3 years
and changes in scores can be interpreted appropriately.
Rank:
Out of the 168 countries globally, a change in rank could be due to:
a) Change in CPI score for the country between 2014 and 2015
b) Change in scores of other countries included in the CPI
CPI 2015: The top
Denmark is in first place with score of 91, helped by strong access to information systems and rules governing the behaviour of those in public positions.
