Corruption in Iraq
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.
Corruption is pervasive at all levels of government in Iraq. Public survey from Transparency International indicates that a majority of general public is not satisfied with the government's current efforts in fighting corruption.[1]
Dynamics
Political parties and public servants are considered corrupt, and petty corruption is highly institutionalized in Iraqi society.[2]
Corruption is considered an obstacle for doing business in Iraq, and red tape and inefficiency continue to persist. Government contracting is an area reported to be affected by high-levels of illicit activity, and public contracts are often awarded to companies connected to political leaders. Investors may come under pressure to take on well-connected local partners to avoid bureaucratic hurdles.[3]
