Corruption Perceptions Index

Name: Corruption Perceptions Index — WorldScore

Tier A· Official

Perceived level of public-sector corruption, from expert assessments and business surveys.

100 = cleanest (least corrupt), 0 = most corrupt

How this score is built

The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) scores countries on perceived public-sector corruption using data aggregated from 13 independent expert and business surveys. It is published on a 0–100 scale where 100 = very clean and 0 = highly corrupt.

WorldScore stores the CPI value natively (native_rescale with bounds 0–100), so the WorldScore 0–100 score equals the published CPI score. Direction is higher_better.

Coverage & currency. We keep only TI's single latest annual release year (currently 2024, 180 countries/territories); countries TI did not assess that year show "no data" rather than a stale prior-year value. Kosovo is included (TI scores it; mapped from the mirror's OWID_KOS code to UNK).

Fidelity. The snapshot has been checked against Transparency International's official CPI 2024 figures and matches exactly (e.g. Denmark 90, Finland 88, Singapore 84, Germany 75, United States 65, Spain 56, South Sudan 8). Our World in Data republishes the TI series verbatim; the value, scale, and direction are TI's own.
