Corruption is a form of dishonest or unethical conduct by a person entrusted with a position of authority, often to acquire personal benefit. Corruption may include many activities including bribery and embezzlement, though it may also involve practices that are legal in many countries.

But while costs may vary and systemic corruption may coexist with strong economic performance, experience suggests that corruption is bad for development.
