How are the exporting countries contributing to corruption?
The ranking only scores the observed behaviour of public officials and politicians, that is, the receiving end of a corrupt transaction. However, exporting industries also contribute to the development of corruption abroad. This is not taken into account in this ranking. There are also a number of industrialised countries which may be successful at keeping their house in order but whose companies are highly engaged in bribing foreign officials. Therefore, our index is not a fair assessment of the responsibility associated with corruption in international trade.
