Corruption In Iraq
Corruption is pervasive at all levels of government in Iraq. In 2021, President Barham Salih said that $150 billion of oil money had been stolen and smuggled out of Iraq in corrupt deals since the 2003 U.S. invasion. The Iraqi economy is predominantly a cash economy, making it almost impossible to trace the amount or the path the money follows. From 2013 to 2021, Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index showed a perception that the Iraqi public sector was seriously corrupt but improving. On a scale of 0 to 100, where low numbers signify a perception of wide corruption, Iraq's score remained constant or rose every year, rising from 16 to 23 over the eight years. For comparison, in 2021 the lowest and highest scores in the Index were 11 and 88. When the 180 countries of the 2021 Index were ranked by score, Iraq's score of 23 ranked it 157th out of 180 on a scale where the higher rankings belonged to countries perceived to have the most corrupt public sectors.
