Caveat Bolivia has undergone profound political changes and
institutional reforms in recent year, with a new
constitution adopted in 2009 and an anti-corruption law
in 2010. It is thus a very early stage to assess the
relevance of the new anti-corruption framework and its
impact on the level of corruption in the country.
Summary Corruption in Bolivia is present at all levels of society.
The judiciary, the police and the public administration
more broadly are perceived as the most corrupt
institutions of the country. Bolivia is dependent on its
natural resources and this sector, worldwide, is
notoriously prone to corruption. With the development
of the country™s lithium plan, it is crucial for Bolivia to
create the necessary safeguards to ensure maximum
social benefits.
Bolivia has undertaken significant efforts to enhance
transparency. Evo Morales declared ‚zero tolerance™
against corruption and his government has created an
institutional and legal fram
ework that appears robust,.
Yet, despite these positive initiatives, Bolivia still
performs below global and regional averages in most
governance areas, including corruption. The lack of
capacity and resources undermine new institutions,
while low salaries, lack of training and a burdensome
bureaucracy continue to create opportunities and
incentives for corruption.
