Corruption is one of the most practiced activities in Mexico by small, medium and large companies, as well as by citizens.
Unfortunately, Mexico is in first place in the report “People and corruption: Latin America and the Caribbean” , which highlights that Mexicans are the largest percentage of the population that has paid a bribe to access a public service, according to Transparency International (TI).
That is why the new virtual president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, announced that one of his proposals is to eradicate corruption throughout the country. An approach that the president of the AQB Directory Employers' Confederation of the Mexican Republic (Coparmex), Gustavo de Hoyos Walther, applauded.
And recent data from the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Inegi) reveal that 15 out of every 100 people experienced an act of corruption in procedures, payments and requests for government services during 2017.
Furthermore, the cost of corruption amounted to 7 billion pesos . Which means 12.5% more than in 2015. This means that each Mexican was worth 2,273 pesos.

Fight against corruption: Coparmex supports
In an interview with Notimex, de Hoyos said that:
Unfortunately, it is a phenomenon that has not been mitigated, quite the opposite. So there is great concern among companies because it reduces their competitiveness, so any measure that helps reduce it, of course, will always have our support.
In it he also commented that the employers sector approves of the fact that AMLO raises the fight against corruption as one of his priorities within his presidential term.
For his part, Carlos Urzúa, nominated to be Secretary of Finance and Public Credit, expressed that he hopes to obtain savings of between 1.0 and 2.0% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), by centralizing government purchases and by combating corruption.
