CPI Definition
The problem with any criticism of a deterrent system is knowing on what basis and how to question it. We have to think about what could be opposed to the constructions that support the state investigative apparatus. A priori, it is not legitimate to limit the form and the direction that an administrative investigation can take but it is advisable to try to grasp what other representations of the world could be developed in order to compare them.

Thinking about another way of what might mean more applicable justice is not a local problem. This leads to cross-cutting issues for re-elaborating the concept of anticorruption and calls into question the contemporary deterrent system.

To this attention, ELISA leans on Transparency International to offer another language to understand our modes of involvement in the world of finance and this, since the origin of professional actions.

CPI Critism
Remind that there are arguments in public resources like Wikipedia to counterattack the idea of ​​an index of corruption on the basis of the methodology of Transparency International.

In first place, corruption is too varied to be captured by a single score. In this regard, the nature of corruption in Kansas is different from that in New York, although the index measures it in the same way. Thus, by measuring the context of corruption, as opposed to corruption itself, CPI would be likely to reinforce unfounded components, if one is part of a judicial reflection based on these elements, they produce critical effects on the sustainability of sued.

In second place, CPI only measures corruption in the public sector by excluding investigations of actors from the private sector. This means that the Volkswagen emissions scandal is not taken into account, which leads to a prevalence of false positives in the panel observed.

Finally, the media use these raw figures as a performance criterion for a country to support a journalistic demonstration, without specifying the ontological nature of the evaluation. From this point of view, the interpretative approach of journalism joins critical opinion in its delivery of information. For example, the local chapter of Transparency International in Bangladesh rejected the results of an audit after a change in methodology led to a false increase in the country's scores; however, the media reported that this was an " improvement " in the country's corruption index.

In an article published in 2013 in Foreign Policy in Washington, it is suggested that the CPI be abolished in the name of the values ​​carried by Transparency International. The editor argued that the CPI incorporated powerful and misleading biases that changed the image of public elites in popular perceptions, potentially contributing to a vicious cycle of inappropriate political responses:

" The corruption perception index as it is difficult to see a justification for each publication. Need restores it. "

However, recent econometric analyzes which have experienced real levels of corruption, and then compared the CPI to other subjective indicators, have shown that even if it was not perfect, it remains broadly consistent against corruption one-dimensional.

Many lawyers in the United States advise international companies to consult the CPI when trying to measure the risk of breaches of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act from abroad. However, the Minnesota International Law Review has criticized this practice by postulating that since the CPI may be subject to different perception biases, it should not be considered a reliable measure of the risk of national corruption. Therefore, intervention of a method which integrates the CPI has several sources of quality information like EDGAR, the condemnations, the balance sheet of the companies and much more, delivers a multidimensional analysis of the events, consolidates a bundle of index matching and restoring the reliability of evaluation.

In addition, Transparency International also publishes a global barometer of corruption which aims to rank countries according to the level of risk ( see Video ) by using internal surveys instead of expert opinions, which raises important questions of bias which bias the results. For example, while Netherlands had a top 10 highest CPI score in 2002, one of its public companies, Hertogenbosch was facing allegations of corruption¹ in Europe.

Therefore, we offer a rating directory that the user can browse to replace the information in its context, verify the entanglement of the company on an economic, legal and politics level and then draw less speculative conclusions.[/vc_column_text]
