Absztrakt

A korrupció, amely számos országban átható probléma, jelentősen aláássa a gazdasági fejlődést és a kormányzati hatékonyságot. A korrupció mérésére általában két mutatószámot használnak: a Korrupció érzékelési Indexet (CPI) és a Korrupció Ellenőrzési Indexet (CCI). Vietnamban a magas korrupciós index a korrupciós gyakorlatok súlyosságát és elterjedtségét tükrözi, amely kihat a gazdaság különböző aspektusaira. Tanulmányunk célja annak feltárása, hogy a korrupció hogyan befolyásolja a vietnami állami költségvetést Kutatásunkhoz a másodlagos adatokat 2012 és 2022 között időszakra gyűjtöttük össze, amikoris Vietnamban jelentős társadalmi és gazdasági változások zajlottak le. Az indexek elemzése során arra a következtetésre jutottunk, hogy a magasabb korrupcióérzékelés (CPI) magasabb bevételek beszedésével függ össze, míg a korrupcióellenőrzés (CCI) szignifikáns kapcsolatot mutat a kiadásokkal. A korrupciónak nincs közvetlen hatása Vietnámban sem a bevételekre, sem pedig a GDP-hez viszonyított kiadásokra. Az olyan tényezők viszont, mint a közvetlen külföldi befektetések (FDI) és az infláció jelentősebb szerepet játszanak a kormányzati bevételek és a költségvetési politika alakításában. Tanulmányunk az első olyan tudományos értekezés Vietnámban, amely a korrupciósindexnek az állami költségvetés beviteleire és kiadásaira gyakorolt hatásmechanizmusát vizsgálja, feltárja az ok-okozati összefüggéseket és intézkedési javaslatokat dolgoz ki a korrupció megelőzésére, segítve ezzel a társadalmi-politikai rendszerrel szembeni bizalom helyreállítását és megtartását.
