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.
