| Slovakia Falls By One Place to 60th on 2020 |
| Bratislava, 26.02.2021 |

| Slovakia fell by one place to the 60th rank on Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) for 2020, according to the organisation’s list published on Thursday.Slovakia is now six places lower than in 2016, for example.
The CPI is produced from the average of rating in nine areas as presented by various bodies measuring opinions on corruption among local entrepreneurs, foreign investors, consultants, political scientists and transparency experts. “A significant slump in one of these sub-indices – the enforcement of law as evaluated by Bertelsmann Stiftung for 2019 – has caused Slovakia’s overall fall on CPI,” said Transparency International Slovakia director Gabriel Sipos.
The fall on the index was partly due to poor anti-corruption actions by former prime minister Peter Pellegrini (now Voice-SD), who handed over the government to Igor Matovic (OLANO) in late March 2020, said Sipos. He added that the work of Matovic, who aims to pull Slovakia up by 20 places on the list, will be fully reflected on the index to be released next year.
“The number of charges pressed over corruption crimes rose by more than one third year-on-year in 2020, and the number of cases brought to court rose by as much as one half to reach the highest figure in the past ten years. The coalition has made the process of selecting people for key posts more transparent in many instances,” said Sipos.
