Abstract: This research empirically investigates the impact of e-Government on controlling corruption based on the hexa helix model using a panel data collection from 45 high-income countries and 88 upper, low, lower countries during the period 2004-2022. The hexa helix model is defined as a combination of the roles of government, citizens, education, mass media, business systems and the rule of law. The fixed effects model is used to conduct regression tests. The simultaneously result shows that each variable on corruption control has consistent results both in high income countries and in upper, low and lower-income countries. Therefore this research provides suggestions for upper, low and lower income countries to study strategies on how high income countries can achieve a high voice and accountability, high business freedom, high government effectiveness, high political rights, high education spending and high rule of law index so their corruption control index also becomes high.

Keywords: e-Government; corruption; hexa helix.
