CORRUPTION AND GROWTH*
PAOLO MAURO
This paper analyzes a newly assembled data set consisting of subjective indices
of corruption, the amount of red tape, the efficiency of the judicial system, and
various categories of political stability for a cross section of countries. Corruption is
found to lower investment, thereby lowering economic growth. The results are
robust to controlling for endogeneity by using an index of ethnolinguistic fractional-
ization as an instrument.
