According to Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), Bulgaria has a higher perception of corruption than any other EU country.
Though Bulgaria has been making some progress on the CPI in recent years, the country has made little progress on judicial reforms and anti-corruption efforts. In Bulgaria, many citizens distrust political institutions and do not feel well represented. With little control over political party financing and few checks and balances, Bulgaria also lacks an independent and transparent media, indicates the CPI, which ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption.
Bulgaria scores 42, dropping one point since last year and is followed by Greece (45), Hungary (46), and Romania (47).
