The Corruption Perception Index for Bulgaria is 42 which ranks the country on 78 place in the world ranking

Research


The results of the Corruption Perception Index for Bulgaria show that the country has received score between 41 and 44 points in the last 10 years and is not able to make any positive change in the direction of development.
One of the key reasons why Bulgaria is lagging from other European Union countries is that the Bulgarian Institutions have never been able to modernize. As main reasons we could find in exhaustion of the possibility to improve the criminal law framework (criminal acts, type and amount of penalties), which in a series of several waves of amendments, achieved the basic requirements of conventions and directives.
On the other hand, the introduction of good governance standards that reduce corruption risk through recognized and established international practices in administrative and corporate governance based on transparency, accountability and integrity and integrity has lagged.
These standards are applicable and set high standards in both the public and private sectors, reducing the implementation of the potential for corrupt behavior – an “environment clean from corruption”.
Some of them, such as the protection of whistleblowers are provided for in EU mandatory Directive, which Bulgaria has not been able to implement for years.
A radical positive change in the results for Bulgaria is possible only through the implementation of internationally recognized standards of good governance.
The results for Bulgaria as part of the Corruption Perceptions Index are available only in Bulgarian.
