Crossword Genius

Tendency to be corrupt (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bent

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'tendency' is the first definition.
(bent can mean a propensity or tendency)

'be corrupt' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bent that I've seen before include "Propensity, preference" , "Angled; corrupt" , "Crooked - inclination" , "Crooked - tendency" , "Angled; grass" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
