Corruption as a form of shadow economic interests of lobbying groups has overwhelmed<br />

modern political and public authorities on many levels. Due attention should be paid to the<br />

public danger this phenomenon carries.<br />

Lobbyists on behalf of government officials contributed to their wards to obtain lucrative<br />

government contracts, loans, aid, benefits, licenses and favorable conditions of economic and<br />

commercial activity to establish new organizations and for the suppression of competition.<br />
