Corruption in Belgium

In general, Belgium has a well-developed legal and institutional framework for fighting against corruption. Transparency International's 2017 Corruption Perception Index ranks the country 16th place out of 180 countries.[1]

Extent

Public trust in the civil service and judiciary is high, and perception of corruption is low in the country.[2] There are areas that could be improved. For instance, whistleblower protection needs further improvement. It has been recommended that the process of anti-corruption policy implementation should also actively engage private sectors.[3]
