Corruption in Suriname has drawn attention in recent years due to several high-profile cases involving top officials and agencies of the government. The incidence of corruption in Suriname has been attributed to the lack of transparency, accountability, and strong regulatory frameworks that address graft and corruption. Corruption cases have undermined the integrity of state institutions, including the country’s financial institutions and overall financial stability.

Corruption scandals

CBvS Scandal

In 2020, the Central Bank of Suriname (CBvS) was embroiled in a corruption scandal that involved around $100 million. The fund, which was entrusted by private banks to the financial institution, was misused and at the center of the controversy was Robert van Trikt, the then governor of CBvS.
