In recent years, regarding the oversight of our country, significant amounts of resources have been transferred to state governments. This is intended to strengthen institutional capacities and improve the provision of government services.However, this article argues that state governments with larger budgets and financial resources are more prone to state capture and the consolidation of systemic corruption networks.
The research correlates corruption indicators such as perception and prevalence, both obtained from the National Survey of Government Quality and Impact (ENCIG, 2023), as well as data from local legislatures on the budgets approved for the same fiscal year (2023). This work supports the following hypothesis: states that manage greater economic resources are more susceptible to being co-opted and captured by a system of corruption networks.
