Canada Ranks in World’s Top 15 Least-Corrupt Countries

imageTransparency International has released their Corruption Perceptions Index for 2020 and Canada has ranked as the 11th least-corrupt country in the world.

According to Transparency International, the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption, drawing on 13 expert assessments and surveys of business executives. It uses a scale of zero (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean).

 

The 2020 CPI report highlights the impact of corruption on government responses to COVID-19, comparing countries’ performance in the index to their investment in health care and the extent to which democratic norms and institutions have been weakened during the pandemic.

As per the CPI index, corruption is more pervasive in countries least equipped to handle the COVID-19 pandemic and other global crises.

The top countries on the CPI are Denmark and New Zealand, with scores of 88, followed by Finland, Singapore, Sweden and Switzerland, with scores of 85 each.

The bottom countries are South Sudan and Somalia, with scores of 12 each, followed by Syria (14), Yemen (15) and Venezuela (15).
