Page "Crime in Estonia" Paragraph 15

In 2008, Transparency International has measured the Corruption Perception Index for Estonia to be at 6. 6 ( CI 6. 2 – 6. 9 ), ranking it 27th in a list of 180 countries.

In comparison, neighbouring Sweden was ranked 1st – 3rd with a CPI at 9. 3 ( CI 9. 2 – 9. 4 ), Finland 5th – 6th with a CPI at 9. 0 ( CI 8. 4 – 9. 4 ), Russia 147th – 150th with a CPI at 2. 1 ( CI 1. 9 – 2. 5 ), and Latvia 52nd with a CPI at 5. 0 ( CI 4. 8 – 5. 2 ).

Higher index means perception of more transparency and less corruption.
