Indexed incrossref

Abstract

Knowing about the main sources and forms of corruption helps decision makers to focus anti-corruption efforts and disburse resources to establish effective countermeasures. A survey of international business executives conducted by the World Economic Forum in 2006 identified public procurement as the government activity most vulnerable to corruption in OECD member countries and beyond.
