| dc.description.abstract | This report on ‘Administrative Corruption as Constraint to Investment: A Behavioural Study on Ten Investment-related Agencies’ has explored the nature, forms, types, causes, costs and remedies of administrative corruption in the investment related agencies of Bangladesh – a developing country of South Asia. A behavioral approach was adopted in conducting the field survey on 10 investment-related service-delivery agencies in Dhaka city. The 10 selected agencies were: the police, judiciary, Board of Investment, Bangladesh Road Transport Authority, Dhaka City Corporation, Department of Immigration and Passports, Dhaka Power Distribution Company, Dhaka Water and Sewerage Authority, Income Tax wing of NBR and Value Added Tax wing of NBR. An attempt has also been made in the study to recommend some remedial measures for curbing administrative corruption in the public sector including those related to investments by catering to the perceptions of both service-recipients and service-providers regarding causes, costs and remedies of corruption. | en_US |
