Key Points
  • Different places in the world have different concepts of corruption.
  • A lot of corruption is created by poorly conceived or implemented laws.
  • Some actions may be legal but should be still be considered institutional corruption.
  • Just trying to catch corrupt individuals doesn’t work; we need to change the rules that incentivize or allow corruption.
  • If you can anticipate corruption you can help prevent it.
  • Rather than immediately reporting corruption, sometimes it’s better to simply steer the conversation another way.
