The article is a voice in the discussion of the relationship between corruption and government spending in rich European countries. Using macroeconomic data for rich European countries in 1996-2015, the correlation between corruption and the government spending rate was verified. Econometric research confirmed the impact of corruption on the government spending rate. This dependence has the shape of a parabola with the arms pointing upwards, and the values of corruption indicators are on the declining part of the parabola, which means limiting the rate of government spending as a result of combating corruption. Research suggests that corruption-reducing countries will benefit - especially those that reduced corruption significantly.(original abstract)
