Peru's Control of Corruption indicator has been steadily declining, with the latest value in 2025 standing at -0.93, ranking 158th globally. This is a significant drop from its all-time peak of -0.15 in 2003, and also represents the country's all-time trough. In comparison, peer countries such as West Bank and Gaza have a similar score of -0.92, while Madagascar and Guinea have slightly lower scores of -0.94. Bolivia, another peer country, has a score of -0.91. Peru's downward trend in corruption control is a concerning development, particularly when considering the progress made in the early 2000s. As the country continues to struggle with corruption, a shift in policy or institutional reforms would be necessary to change the trajectory of this trend and improve Peru's standing in terms of control of corruption.
