SUMMARY
The study examines the relationship between the perception of corruption and financial inclusion, that is, the prevalence and use of modern financial services. The authors use Transparency International’s corruption index and the World Bank’s Global Findex database of financial inclusion. Based on the time series data of Hungary and Mexico between 2009-2022, statistical methods are used to examine the evolution of performance. First, they compare data by geographic region. The countries are then classified into clusters, and then the results of Mexico and Hungary are analysed. Based on the results, the authors did not find a direct correlation between the financial culture and the reduced perception of the severity of the corruption problem in the examined period.
