If the "Council of the Americas" is critizising you, then you're probably on the right track (stress on 'probably').

Transparency International commissions the Internet Center for Corruption Research the issue of these indexes after the views of business people and analysts from around the world. “Free of charge”. They like to call their Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) a solid measurement tool. To ensure quality control in the methodology CPI has to be reviewed by the TI Index Advisory Committee. TI Index Advisory Committee has 10 members. Among some professors, out of those 10, one belongs to the World Bank, Daniel Kaufmann, and another to the IMF, Shang-Jin Wei.

Not that transparent... It´s money we´re talking.

A significant share of Argentina's debt is owned in the form of bonds by international holders and business people and is adjusted by Argentine inflation. Argentine inflation indexes are issued by the INDEC.

Don´t get me wrong, I go to the supermarket everyday and of course I know the prices. But increasing the INDEC index endangers Argentine economy by increasing the national debt and the value of the bonds. Well, momentarily increases the value of the bonds, because if things get out of control they´ll decrease soon, then inflation again...
Some sort of circular problem.

Lack of respect? I don´t think so.
Somebody out there is loosing big money with the K factor and the perceived figures on lack of transparency appear to me to be a kind of push for cash.
