[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”20654″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In the most recent Transparency International (TI) global Corruption Perception Index (CPI) 2017, Lithuania received a score of 59 on a 100-point scale, thus ranking 38th out of 180 countries. Lithuania is currently ranked 16th out of 28 European Union (EU) countries while Denmark\u2019s score of 88 puts it in the first place.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lithuania\u2019s results have not changed for the past three years. In both 2015 and 2016, Lithuania received a score of 59.\u00a0 This year, New Zealand and Denmark rank highest with scores of 89 and 88 respectively. Syria, South Sudan and Somalia rank lowest with scores of 14, 12 and 9 respectively.<\/p>\n

Estonia is ranked 21st with a score of 71 (last year \u2013 22nd with a score of 70 points), Latvia \u2013 40th with a score of 58 (last year \u2013 44th with a score of 57 points), Poland \u2013 36th with a score of 60 (last year \u2013 29th with a score of 62 points).<\/p>\n

The Corruption Perception Index (CPI) ranks countries and territories based on how effectively they are able to manage corruption. The score of a country or territory reflects the perceived level of corruption on a scale of 0 to 100, where a 0 indicates that a country is perceived as highly corrupt whereas a 100 means that it is perceived as very transparent. The level of corruption in the public and government sectors is evaluated by various experts and business leaders.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year\u2019s results reveal that experts and business representatives do not value the efforts to minimize corruption in advance. I believe it is a clear signal to the public and private sector and business leaders that they should not wait for oversight institutions or the justice system to intervene, but take the initiative themselves. Otherwise, we may never witness any significant changes. \u201c \u2013 TI Lithuania Executive Director Sergejus Muravjovas.<\/p>\n

TI Lithuania emphasizes that the current government is determined to measure its success in the fight against corruption based on the CPI. The government\u2019s programme clearly states that in 2020, Lithuania will receive a score of 70 based on the CPI. In addition, the National Anti-corruption Programme of the Republic of Lithuania, verified in 2015, expects that next year (2019), Lithuania should score at least 65 points.<\/p>\n
