The aim of this study is to analyse if competitiveness is influenced by corruption and to show the nature of this influence. Analysing the national competitiveness data from The Global Competitiveness Report 2012-2013 and the data about corruption from Corruption Perceptions Index 2012, the results are expected to reveal the existence of a strong positive connection between these two indexes, corruption significantly influencing the competitiveness of a country. Also, the relation between these variables is analysed distinctively related to different stages of country development. The results of every group are revealed and discussed separately.
