Abstract: This article shows the results of a study whose objective is to identify aspects considered as explanatory variables, which evolve alongside levels of corruption and to analyse the direction of the variation with each explained variable, through the use of multiple regression methodology. Once these variables and the statistical significance of their variations have been identified the cost of, the lack of decorum, integrity and transparency, corruption is deduced. The variables are grouped into those where growth is associated with greater or lower levels of corruption, which will warn of the effect the services sector has on the GDP (GDP in %).
