Abstract

We use a difference-in-difference approach for the period 2005 to 2014 and show that judicial reform is statistically linked with a reduction in corruption indices for a large sample of countries even when including country trends. This finding is robust to placebo and falsification tests, and it complements well with recent research on the role of judicial reform on economic growth.
