Slovakia managed to improve its indicators – 53 points (+1, 49th), Romania – 46 points (+1, 63rd) and Moldova, whose indicators increased the most – +3, and which now ranks 91st with 39 points.

“The global leaders and outsiders of the Corruption Perceptions Index 2022 are little changed,” reads the report.
