During our research we tried to analyse the evolution from pre-corruption times, the Indian view dating 2300 B.C., continuing with the Chinese dynasty Quin (221- 207 BC), the Sumerians and Semites, and also to the Persian Kingdom, and emphasising the corruption in Ancient Greece and rounding up with Ancient Rome. The circle is closed with the historical results had in those times that could be shifted in today’s macroeconomic environment.

Banks feed corruption by offering loans secured by properties with low transparency, thereby enabling money estrangement without citizens knowing this. More than that, banks have shown over time that they are willing to accept huge volumes of money from corrupt governments, officials or businessmen looking to draw income from the legitimate economy of the count...
