- Corruption Perceptions Index 20253.42 MB
Anti-corruption movement Transparency International (TI) today released the 2025 Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), highlighting worsening corruption and a decline in leadership globally. The picture in South Africa is equally discouraging, showing little to no progress in the last three years.

The CPI measures perceived levels of public-sector corruption in 182 countries and territories on a scale of zero (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean), drawing from 13 independent data sources.
