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.
A "#" is given if the source
mentioned in the column contributed to the assessment of a country.
