Corruption, economy and governance in Central Africa: An analysis of public and regional drivers of corruption

Stéphane Goutte, Thomas Péran and Thomas Porcher

Finance Research Letters, 2022, vol. 44, issue C

Abstract: This article seeks to highlight in more depth the public levers of action in the implementation of anti-corruption policies within the countries among the Central Africa region. Using non-supervised statistical method, we first study the profile of the countries concerned (institutional, social, entrepreneurial, etc.), then secondly, we analyze the impact of public measures on the extent of corruption at the national level. We manage to demonstrate that there is a common and standard sub-regional political program intended for public decision-makers, regardless of the degree of heterogeneity of national structures.
