Abstract

Dans cet article, nous tentons d’évaluer les effets de la corruption sur la croissance, le bien-être et la pauvreté au Sénégal à l’aide d’un modèle d’équilibre général calculable dynamique. Les résultats de nos simulations montrent qu’une fuite de 10% d’investissements publics sous l’effet de la corruption aurait pour effet d’engendrer une perte de 2.6 points de pourcentage de taux de croissance par an, en moyenne. Le bien-être des ménages diminue, en moyenne, de 0,64 point de pourcentage par an. Par ailleurs, ce détournement de ressources destinées à l’investissement public a également pour effet d’accroître l’incidence de la pauvreté de 0,51 point de pourcentage en moyenne par an, soit 61136 nouveaux pauvres tous les ans.
