“…So corruption reduces the negative impact of regulations on entrepreneurship in highly regulated economies. Similar results are also found by Leff (1964); Leys (1965); Huntington (1968); Beck and Mahler (1986); Lien (1986) and Vial and Hanoteau (2010), establishing that corruption increases efficiency. So it is more likely that being a country with less and lesser corruption with effective governance may reduce the aggregate technical efficiency of agricultural sector.…”

This paper examines the association between controls of corruption and the agricultural production efficiency of 23 European Union Member States during the recent economic crisis. Production efficiency, measured in terms of technical efficiency, is the effectiveness of a given set of inputs that is used to produce an output. Owing to climate and geographical location agriculture in European countries is diverse. The economic downturn led by the financial crisis which started in mid-2007, is still prevailing across European countries. Control of corruption along with the existing economic crisis of the member states are affecting agriculture production efficiency. This study used the national level production data for the period of 2003-2009. It shows that the technical efficiency of most Member States have declined over the years and that it was significantly lower in austere economic crisis time 2007-09 than 2003-06 for all countries. It is also found that the declining trend of technical efficiency is significantly lower for central and eastern European countries than for the western European countries. Study finds that the control of corruption in the presence of high government effectiveness, decreases the technical efficiency of agricultural production in the Member States.Res. Agric., Livest.

“…Rock and Bonnett (2004) report a significant positive relationship between economic growth and corruption in China and Indonesia. Vial and Hanoteau (2010) focus on the Indonesian manufacturing industry from 1975 to 1995 and find that plant-level corruption increases output and productivity. The authors argue that the positive effect arises from the long-term relationship between government and firms, which facilitates the latter's ability to overcome red tape and barriers to doing business.…”

We study the effects of corruption on firm efficiency using a unique dataset of private firms from 14 Central and Eastern European countries from 2000 to 2013. We find that an environment characterized by a high level of corruption has an adverse effect on firm efficiency. This effect is stronger for firms with a lower propensity to behave corruptly, such as foreign-controlled firms and firms managed by female CEOs, while local firms and firms with male CEOs are not disadvantaged. We also find that an environment characterized by considerable heterogeneity in the perception of corruption is associated with an increase in firm efficiency. This effect is particularly strong for foreign-controlled firms from low corruption countries, while no effect is observed for firms managed by a female CEO.

“…There is variation across regions: the lowest percentage of such experience is reported for the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) firms (8%) and the highest for Sub-Saharan African firms (27%). 2 This stream of literature suggests that corruption assists firms in addressing widespread inefficiency in public governance and the provision of public goods (see Vial andHanoteau, 2010 andKato andSato, 2015).…”
