Latvia’s score slightly improves in the Corruption Perceptions Index
Jan 28, 2021
Transparency International has published the results of the Corruption Perceptions Index 2020. Latvia's score has increased by 1, from 56 to 57, and ranks 42nd the world (together with Cyprus and Costa Rica) and compared to 2019. While this might be seen as a positive step, the score is still too low and indicates that Latvia is lagging behind compared to other EU and OECD countries.
