Explanatory notes
* CPI Score relates to perceptions of the degree of corruption as seen by business people and
country analysts and ranges between 10 (highly clean) and 0 (highly corrupt).
** Confidence range provides a range of possible values of the CPI score. This
reflects how a country’s score may vary, depending on measurement precision. Nominally, with 5
percent probability the score is above this range and with another 5 percent it is below. However,
particularly when only few sources (n) are available an unbiased estimate of the mean coverage
probability is lower than the nominal value of 90%.
*** Surveys used refers to the number of surveys that assessed a country’s
performance. 16 surveys and expert assessments were used and at least 3 were required for a country
to be included in the CPI.
