Corruption in Luxembourg

Levels of corruption in Luxembourg are generally said to be very low, and there a strong legal framework for combating corruption[1] in the country.

Moreover, a significant number of the surveyed households considered that the government's fight against corruption "ineffective" and that corruption had increased over the previous two years.

[2] On Transparency International's 2023 Corruption Perceptions Index, Luxembourg scored 78 on a scale from 0 ("highly corrupt") to 100 ("very clean").
