Survey shows corruption and bribery still prevalent in Croatia

Author: spez
ZAGREB, May 14 (Hina) - Fraud, bribery and corruption remain prevalent in doing business in Croatia, much higher than the average in 38 countries surveyed by the consulting firm Ernst & Young (EY).

The survey entitled "Fraud and corruption — the easy option for growth?" conducted 3,800 interviews with employees of large companies in 38 countries online or in person in Europe, the Middle East, India and Africa.

A vast majority of Croatian respondents, as many as 92%, agreed that bribery and corrupt practices happen widely, which is significantly higher than the survey average of 51%.

Countries where the perception of corruption is the lowest include Denmark (4%), Sweden (10%) and Finland (11%).

Respondents in Croatia answered differently when asked about their perception of corruption in the companies they worked for and their perception of the extent of corruption and bribery in doing business in Croatia.

Twenty-nine per cent of respondents in Croatia said they had heard of fraud or bribery in their business, compared with the survey average of 21%. Slovenia, Serbia and the Czech Republic were below the average, with 17% and 16% respectively.

Almost one-fifth of Croatians polled - 19% - believe that anti-corruption policies would negatively affect their competitiveness on the market, which is around the average of those surveyed.

Despite the negative perception in everyday business, the survey shows that 60% of respondents said that there has been considerable improvement in regulating the market in Croatia.
