Abstract
Corruption is a important element that has a negative influence on economic growth and development. The effect of budget transparency and economic freedoms in preventing corruption is increasingly acknowledged. In this current study, the relationship between budget transparency and economic freedoms and corruption are investigated. As the sample of the study, countries for which full data could be accessed in terms of these three variables for the 2006-2012 periods were selected. Firstly, correlation coefficients for each variable were calculated. In conclusion, a negative and strong relationship has been discerned between corruption and budget transparency and economic freedoms. In addition, the relationships among variables have been analyzed thorough with the help of cross section regression analysis. It was found that as the level of budget transparency and economic freedoms increases, the level of corruption reduces.
