Annapolis, Maryland-based TRACE International, Inc. has published the annual TRACE Bribery Risk Matrix® (TRACE Matrix).

“The Trace Matrix measures business bribery risk in 200 countries, territories, and autonomous and semi-autonomous regions. The overall country risk score is a combined and weighted score of four domains: Business Interactions with Government; Anti-Bribery Deterrence and Enforcement; Government and Civil Service Transparency; and Capacity for Civil Society Oversight, including the role of the media. The domain scores are derived from nine subdomains. The TRACE Matrix was originally developed in 2014 in collaboration with [Santa Monica, California-based] RAND Corporation. It is updated annually by TRACE.”
