Summary: | There is no room for complacency,
however. Corruption is not falling in all countries or all
sectors, and even the most successful reformers still tend
to have higher levels of firm-level corruption than in
Western Europe. The burden weighs most heavily on the new
private firms that are the engine of growth and employment
in the region. And even in countries that are showing
success, the gains are not irreversible. Leaders need to
continue to open their economic and political systems to
greater competition, foster transparency and accountability
in the public sector, and reduce administrative and
regulatory burdens for firms. |
