Abstract
⺠We examine the impact of corruption on both the banking sector and economic growth. ⺠Corruption significantly aggravates the problems with bad loans. ⺠We find evidence of a new channel through which corruption lowers economic growth. ⺠Corruption distorts the allocation of bank funds. ⺠Corruption decreases the quality of private investments and finally lowers economic growth.
