Georgia’s control‑of‑corruption score has risen from a trough of –1.53 in 1996 to an all‑time peak of 0.83 in 2014, reflecting substantial reforms in the post‑Soviet era, before slipping to 0.57 in 2025, which places the country 62nd out of 190 economies. The 2025 figure is marginally lower than the scores of peers such as Mauritius (0.58) and the Federated States of Micronesia (0.58), and only slightly above St. Lucia (0.56). Over the 26‑year coverage period the index shows a clear upward trajectory in the first two decades, followed by a modest decline after the 2014 high point, suggesting that recent political and institutional challenges have tempered earlier gains. Continued strengthening of anti‑corruption institutions and greater transparency in public procurement could reverse the recent dip and sustain the long‑term improvement trend.
