Curious, Aotearoa/NZ isn't even listed, yet when a similar survey was released last month, it placed 3rd (3rd least corrupt, that is).

Apparently Nigeria was top of the list originally, but bribed Bangladesh to front the queue...

I wonder how they came up with this?
And in this type of situation, I wonder if it isn't because some people just hide corruption better.

They just tried to bribe people to admit to corruption. If they accepted they were on the list. The more money it took the lowere down the list you go. [cynical smirk-e]

The site appears to connected to an outfit called transaprency.org and I think that that is what is being measured most, the assumption being that more open and transparent business, politic, policing etc. are, the less conducive they are to the growth of corruption.
