In 2017, an academic research paper was conducted based on these statistics, to find out how much money did the country lose (GDP) due to soliciting and giving bribes.

Academic research found that the main reason behind such corrupt practices is to escape punishments in the form of fines or imprisonment.

Other reasons behind such practices include trying to get favors from government officials to expedite or make decisions in favor of the giver.
