existing perception

Hi!

Can you pelase tell me if it is OK to say existing perception in the context:

One of them is so-called perceived corruption index (PCI) which is calculated on the basis of the existing perception/observation of businessmen, risk analysts and general public.

Is the rest of the sentence Ok?

Thank you very much
