Resumen:
|
To assess the economic costs of corruption in infrastructure, we first need to understand why the sector consistently ranks as the most corrupt. Infrastructure is distinctive as an economic activity in two respects. First, it is intensive in ‘idiosyncratic’ capital, meaning that its capital has to be designed specifically for installation. Second, it is a ‘network’ activity, requiring government regulation. Both of these features make the activity unusually prone to corruption.
