The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) is an index that ranks countries "by their perceived levels of public sector corruption, as determined by expert assessments and opinion surveys". The CPI generally defines corruption as an "abuse of entrusted power for private gain".
The dataset consists of 11 features for more than 150 countries.
