Corruption Perceptions in North Cyprus: 2023 Report
(2024)
Abstract
This report has been prepared to measure the perceptions of corruption, and to raise awareness about the fight against corruption in the northern part of Cyprus. The study is based on the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) methodology of Transparency International, which is published annually but does not cover the northern part of Cyprus. It includes two separate surveys that were answered by business executives and experts. In addition to calculating scores, the report delves into businesspeople’s perceptions of corruption. The corruption perceptions score of the northern part of Cyprus for 2023 has been calculated as 27 out of 100. This score is well below 43, which is the average of 180 countries in the 2023 list published by Transparency International at the beginning of 2024, placing the northern part of Cyprus in 140th place. The score is 7 points behind the score of Turkey, and 38 points lower than the Western Europe-European Union average.
