Introduction

Most scholars agree that corruption generates major societal costs. Corruption endangers political stability, undermines democratic values, provides fertile ground for organized crime and fosters a general loss of confidence in public institutions (Pacini et al., 2002; Frei and Muethel, 2017). Additionally, corruption contributes to market failure and hampers economic growth (Mauro, 1995; Pacini et al., 2002; Osuji, 2011; Frei and Muethel, 2017). Research indicates that corruption entails substantial risks and costs for businesses (Block et al., 1982; Wu, 2009; Hauser and Kronthaler, 2013; Ambler, 2014). Corruption undermines the social fabric by causing increased poverty, distorted access to public services and decreased public health (Frei and Muethel, 2017).
