DATA SOURCES
To measure these concepts, the GCI uses statistical
data such as enrollment rates, government debt, budget
deficit, and life expectancy. These data are obtained
from internationally recognized agencies, notably the
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO), the International Monetary
Fund (IMF), and the World Health Organization (WHO).
The descriptions and data sources of all these statistical
COUNTRY COVERAGE
This year the Report covers 144 economies. In this
edition, because of data availability issues, we could
not include Benin, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brunei
Darussalam, Ecuador, or Liberia. On the other hand,
Tajikistan, which could not be included in the last edition,
is re-instated this year.

toward strengthening its innovation and knowledgedriven economy will be necessary for Poland to sustain
its growth going forward. The country can build on a
fairly well educated population, well-developed financial
markets, and a market that is by far the largest in
the region. Transport infrastructure, however, despite
notable improvements, remains weak (78th) by European
standards. Some aspects of institutions, such as the
burden of its regulations (117th), its rather inefficient
legal framework for settling business disputes (118th),
and difficulties in obtaining information on government
decisions for business (110th) also need to be addressed
on a priority basis. And as the country slowly emerges
from the economic slowdown of 2012 and 2013, Poland
should focus on further improving labor market efficiency
and strengthening business sophistication (63rd) as well
as on its business sectors capacity for innovation (72nd).
To bolster its innovative capacity, the next set of reforms
should focus on reinforcing its innovation ecosystem in
close collaboration with the private sector to enable a
sustainable growth path for the country.
With a stable score, Italy retains 49th position,
despite a deterioration in the functioning of its institutions
(106th) and with a poor assessment on government
efficiency (143rd), continued macroeconomic concerns
that result from the large public debt, and a very rigid
labor market (136th) that hinders employment creation.
Overall, Italian companiesmost notably small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)continue to suffer
from weak access to financing (139th) that, coupled with
a high tax rate (134th), affects their investment capacity.
In addition, as already mentioned, the labor market
remains very rigid (136th) and unable to make an efficient
use of the countrys talent (130th). The reform program
currently being designed, if implemented properly,
should help in addressing some of these weaknesses
and allow Italy to leverage its competitiveness strengths,
which lie in its sophisticated business community (25th)
with a good potential to innovate (39th) and its large and
diversified market (12th) that should allow for important
economies of scale and scope.
The Russian Federation is placed at 53rd
position this year with some improvements related to
the efficiency of goods markets (in particular domestic
competition), ICT use, and business sophistication
although this arguably reflects some positive
developments that took place before the Ukraine conflict
started. At the time of writing, the Russian economy
continues to face many deeply rooted challenges that
will have to be addressed for the country to strengthen
its competitiveness. Russias weak and inefficient
institutional framework (97th) remains its Achilles heel
and will require a major overhaul in order to eradicate
corruption and favoritism (92nd) and re-establish trust in
the independence of the judiciary (109th). Diversification
of the economy will need reinforcing the very small
all feature in the top half of the rankings, and all of them
have made strides in this edition: Malaysia gains four
places, Thailand is up six, Indonesia four, the Philippines
seven, and Vietnam advances two places. Since 2009,
they have improved their group performance in every
edition. In South Asia, among the regions six countries
covered by the GCI, only India features in the top half
of the rankings. Since 2009, the average GCI score of
the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation
(SAARC) countries has stagnated.
Because of the regions diversity, the challenges
vary enormously, but a few common priorities can be
identified. For the most advanced economies, such as
Japan, the Republic of Korea, and Taiwan (China), one
common challenge is the rigidity of their labor markets.
They must also set up an ecosystem that is better at
creating truly disruptive innovations. For countries such
as Malaysia, the goal is to transform the economy
to become more knowledge-driven in order to avoid
the middle-income trap. In China, more reforms and
liberalization are needed to improve market efficiency,
increase competition, and encourage a more optimal
allocation of financial resources. In most emerging Asian
economies, common challenges include addressing
the huge infrastructure deficit and improving regional
connectivity; reducing red tape, which will promote
economic formality and entrepreneurship and reduce
pervasive and deep-rooted corruption; and improving
market efficiency by phasing out distortionary measures.
As the regions poorest economiessuch as India and
Myanmarare transitioning away from agriculture and
developing a manufacturing base, they will need to
create a sound and stable institutional framework for
local and foreign investors and improve connectivity.
Taiwan (China) ranks 14th, dropping two places
despite maintaining its score. The third of the Asian
Tigers, behind Singapore and Hong Kong SAR, its
performance has been very stable over the past six
years. Notable strengths include its capacity to innovate
(10th, down two), its highly efficient goods markets (11th),
its world-class infrastructure (11th), and strong higher
education (12th). In order to enhance its competitiveness,
Taiwan will need to further strengthen its institutional
framework (27th), whose quality is undermined by some
inefficiency within the government (29th) and various
forms of corruption (31st), and will also need to address
some inefficiencies and rigidities in its labor market
(32nd). As elsewhere in Asia, encouraging and facilitating
the participation of women in the workforce (89th)would
contribute to enhancing competitiveness.
New Zealand advances one rank to 17th place
its best rank since the introduction of the current GCI
methodology. Among the highlights, the country is
ranked 1st in the institutions pillar and features in the top
10 of five more pillars. In particular, New Zealand ranks
third in the financial market development pillar. It boasts

Box 3: Competitiveness and the need for structural reform in large emerging economies
In recent decades, many emerging economies benefited
from rapid economic growth, which allowed them to gain
a more prominent role in the global economy.1 Emerging
economies drove growth throughout the economic crisis. In
2009the worst year of the crisisthe combined GDP of
advanced economies contracted by 3 percent while emerging
economies grew by 3 percent. Overall, between 2007 and
2013, emerging economies grew by 5.9 percent annually,
five percentage points more than advanced economies.
These radically different trajectories accelerated the shift
of economic power from advanced economies toward the
emerging world, which in 2012 accounted for more than
half of global output for the first time in recent history. High
commodity prices and better access to financing thanks to
the inflow of capital, often from advanced economies, go a
long way toward explaining these positive developments in
recent years.
However, since 2010, economic growth has been
slowing down in emerging economies, which grew by 4.7
percent in 2013, the second lowest rate since 2002, and the
International Monetary Fund has recently revised its forecast
for 2014 down to 4.6 percent.2
The slowdown can be attributed to several factors.
Overall, commodity prices, with the exception of oil prices,
have stagnated or started to fall. At the same time, the outflow
of capital and the phasing out of accommodating monetary
policy in the United States have created further instability and
worsened credit access conditions for emerging economies.
In addition, emerging economies for the most part did
not use the recent spell of high growth to implement the
structural reforms needed to boost productivity and build
competitiveness. The necessary reforms are particularly critical
in three areas: (1) boosting competition, especially in strategic
sectors of the economy, by removing bottlenecks and barriers
to entry; (2) making the labor markets more flexible and more

Using World Bank GDP purchasing power parityadjusted data, one can estimate Equation (1) for the
19902012 period. The coefficient of the natural
log of GCI is 0.067 with a t-statistic of 5.23, and the
coefficient of the log of the initial (i.e., 1990) level of
income is 0.010 with a t-stat of 5.82. We can net out
the convergence effect from the overall growth rate and
relate the result to the level of the GCI.3
Figure2 plots this net growth rate against the
natural log of the GCI score, revealing a positive and
strong correlation, which is consistent with the view that
the GCI is a good proxy for the level of productivity or
competitiveness of an economy.
In conclusion, the results of both Figures 1 and
2 indicate that the GCI is a good estimate of the level
of productivity. In other words, the GCIs estimate of
the determinants of competitivenesswhich, in turn,
fundamentally shape the (conditional) medium to
long-run growth rate of an economy and its level of
prosperityis validated on a statistical level.
NOTES
1 The reason that poor economies do not grow systematically faster
is that other things are not equal. Among those other things that
are not equal, we find the level of productivity or competitiveness,
as defined by the World Economic Forum.
2 A growth convergence equation can be derived, for example, from
the basic neoclassical growth theory as seen in Barro and Sala-iMartn (2004).
3 This is done by adding the term ln (yit) from both sides of
Equation (1) and using the estimated in Equation (1). GDP per
capita in constant 2011 international dollars were used for the
computation.

While extreme poverty (at a $1.25 per day threshold) has declined
notably, taking such narrowly defined poverty headcount ratios
underestimates the large numbers of low-income people who fall
just above fixed international poverty thresholds (e.g., $2 or $2.75
per day). See AfDB 2013; Ali and Zhuang 2007.
Box 4: The Sustainable Development Goals: A sound basis for sustainable growth
Because the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)
have evolved into the Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs)a development that is expected to be adopted in
by the United Nations in 2015sustainable development
is once again a top priority on policymakers agendas. The
vision emerging from the discussion of the SDGs 2015 is a
more encompassing one of sustainable development that
is at the center of the political process, putting poverty
eradication at the core of the SDGs but also recognizing
that changing unsustainable and promoting sustainable
patterns of consumption and production and protecting and
managing the natural resource base of economic and social
development are the overarching objectives of and essential
requirements for sustainable development.1

Despite this progress, a generalized lack of highquality, internationally comparable data that would
allow countries to fully understand how they fare in
these critical areas and benchmark themselves against
peers persists. Without an improvement in the quality
and availability of key data on social and environmental
sustainability, countries will continue to face challenges

* This is the GCI rank, as presented in Chapter 1.1. Only the 113 economies covered by this exercise are included in the table.
This is the score obtained by multiplying the GCI score by the social sustainability coefficient.
This is the score obtained by multiplying the GCI score by the environmental sustainability coefficient.
This is the average of social sustainabilityadjusted GCI and environmental sustainabilityadjusted GCI scores.
Please refer to the technical appendix of this chapter for a description of how the coefficients are calculated. All the underlying indicators are available at http://www.weforum.org/content/pages/

Footprint Network.
38 Information about the Global Adaptation Index is available at
http://index.gain.org/.
39 The lack of some additional indicators, especially in the social
sustainability dimension, constrains the model and does not allow
for a comprehensive measurement of sustainability. For example,
Germany performs well on the social sustainability pillar despite an
existing trend of decreasing wages in Germany where, according
to the Federal Employment Agency, over the past four years the
number of individuals who require state support to get by despite
full- or part-time jobs has increased steadily. Similarly, in Italy,
the Italian National Institute of Statistics (Istat) disseminates the
relative and absolute poverty estimations for households in the
country, based on 2012 Households Budget Survey data. In 2012
the relative poverty incidence was equal to 12.7 percent, whereas
the absolute poverty rate was 6.8 percent. These dimensions,
although measured at country level in advanced economies, are
not measured worldwide. Additionally, because poverty thresholds
change from country to country, it is difficult to establish a crosscountry comparison. The Gini index variable does not yet capture
similar phenomena in the assessed countries.
40 The lack of access to basic necessities indicates a state of
poverty.

Box 1: A brief history of the Executive Opinion Survey and The Global Competitiveness Report
The Global Competitiveness Report began as a research
project by Professor Klaus Schwab in 1979. The report,
entitled The Competitiveness of European Industry, would
later become the annual Global Competitiveness Report.
This first report was an analysis of the competitiveness of
16 European countries. The study was based on Schwabs
innovative concept of competitiveness, which extended
beyond the traditional notion of labor and capital productivity.
Competitiveness, in that early report, was defined as the
ability of one enterprise to do as well as, or outperform,
another company or group of companies while taking into
account the framework conditions in the country.
That year, of the 200 indicators selected for the Forums
first competitiveness index, 50 were derived from a survey.
The survey was mailed out in English, French, and German
to potential respondents throughout Europe, mainly Chief
Executive or Chief Planning Officers of European companies;
Managing Directors of subsidiaries of US companies
operating in these 16 countries, leading representatives
of industrial and employers associations, labor unions,
economic and social institutes; university faculties of
economics or business administration; and the economic
media. Median values were calculated for each question and
by country. In parallel, Forum researchers visited statistical
offices and ministries in order to gather relevant quantitative
data. The report was finalized in November 1979. The
Forums work on competitiveness and its various indexes
has therefore been including a mix of proprietary survey data
and statistics from international organizations since its very
inception.

administered in a variety of formats, including face-toface or telephone interviews with business executives,
mailed paper forms, and online surveys. For energy,
time, and cost considerations, the Forum encourages
the use of the online survey tool. However, deciding
which of these differing methodologies to use may be
based on the particular countrys infrastructure, distance
between cities, cultural preferences, and other such
issues.
The Partner Institutes also play an active and
essential role in disseminating the findings of The Global
Competitiveness Report and other reports published by
The Global Competitiveness and Benchmarking Network
by holding press events and workshops to highlight the
results at the national level to the business community,
the public sector, and other stakeholders.
Striving for excellence
The Global Competitiveness and Benchmarking Network
has, over the years, always given great importance to
reflecting the newest thinking in matters of development
and measurement of economic growth as well as to
applying surveying best practices. To this end, it has

Moving average and computation of country scores
As a final step, the country averages for 2014 are
combined with the 2013 averages to produce the
country scores that are used for the computation of the
GCI 20142015 and for other projects.7
This moving average technique, introduced in 2007,
consists of taking a weighted average of the most recent
years Survey results together with a discounted average
of the previous year. There are several reasons for doing
this. First, it makes results less sensitive to the specific
point in time when the Survey is administered. Second,
it increases the amount of available information by
providing a larger sample size. Additionally, because the
Survey is carried out during the first quarter of the year,
the average of the responses in the first quarter of 2013
and first quarter of 2014 better aligns the Survey data
with many of the data indicators from sources other than
the Survey, which are often year-average data.
To calculate the moving average, we use a weighting
scheme composed of two overlapping elements. On one
hand, we want to give each response an equal weight
and, therefore, place more weight on the year with the
larger sample size. At the same time, we would like to
give more weight to the most recent responses because
they contain more updated information. That is, we also
discount the past. Table2 reports the exact weights
used in the computation of the scores of each country,
while Box4 details the methodology and provides a
clarifying example.
Trend analysis and exceptions
The two tests described above address variability issues
among individual responses in a country. Yet they were
not designed to track the evolution of country scores
across time. We therefore carry out an analysis to assess
the reliability and consistency of the Survey data over

where N c is the sample size (i.e., the number of respondents) for country c in year t, with t = 2013, 2014. is a discount factor.
Its value is set at 0.6. That is, the 2013 score of country c is given 2/3 of the weight given to the 2014 score.
Plugging Equations (2a) and (2b) into (1) and rearranging yields:
N c2013

In Equation (3), the first component of the weighting scheme is the discounted-past weighted average. The second component
is the sample-size weighted average. The two components are given half-weight each. One additional characteristic of this
approach is that it prevents a country sample that is much larger in one year from overwhelming the smaller sample from the
other year.

Exceptions
As described in the text, there are a number of exceptions to the approach described above. In describing them below, we
use actual yearsrather than lettersin equations for the sake of concreteness.
In the case of Survey questions that were introduced in 2014, where, by definition, no past data exist, the weight applied to
the 2013 score is wc2013 = 0 and the weight applied to the 2014 score is wc2013 = 1. Equation (1) simply is qi,c201314 = qi,c2014. The same
is true for Tajikistan, which was reinstated in 2014. In this case, we have qi,c201314 = qi,c2014.
In the case of countries that failed the inter-year robustness check, the weight applied is wc2013 = 1 and wc2014 = 0, so that
Equation (1) simply becomes qi,c201314 = qi,c2013. In the case of countries that failed the inter-year robustness check last year and
for which the 2013 data were discarded, we use the Survey data from 2012 instead, and combine them with those of 2014 to
compute the scores. Equation (1) then becomes qi,c20122014 = wc2012 qi,c2012 wc2014 qi,c2014.
Example of score computation
For this example, we compute the score of Tanzania for indicator 5.08 Extent of staff training, which is derived from the following
Survey question: In your country, to what extent do companies invest in training and employee development? [1 = not at all;
7 = to a great extent]. This question is not a new Survey question and Tanzania did not fail the inter-year robustness test
either this year or last year. Therefore, the general case of Equation (1) applies. Tanzanias score was 3.76 in 2013 and 3.31
in 2014. The weighting scheme described above indicates how the two scores are combined. In Tanzania, the size of the
sample was 92 in 2013 and 96 in 2014. Using = 0.6 and applying Equations (2a) and (2b) yields weights of 44.5 percent
for 2013 and 55.5 percent for 2014 (see Table 2). The final country score for this question is given by Equation (1):
2014
This is the final score used in the computation of the GCI and reported in Table 5.08 (see page 463). Although numbers
are rounded to two decimal places in this example and to one decimal place in the data tables, exact figures are used in all
calculations.
NOTES
1 The World Economic Forums Global Competitiveness and
Benchmarking Network would like to acknowledge e-Rewards
Market Research for carrying out the Executive Opinion Survey
2014 in the United States, following the detailed sampling
guidelines. Furthermore, e-Rewards supplemented a sample in
Germany and Sweden, as well as France.
2 Company size is defined as the number of employees of the firm
in the country of the Survey respondent. The company size value
used for delineating the large and small company sample frames
varies across countries. The size value tracks closely with the
overall size of the economy. Adjustments were made to the value
based on searches in company directories and data gathered
through the administration of the Survey in past years.
3 In order to reach the required number of surveys in each country
(80 for most economies and 300 for the BRICS countries and the
United States), a Partner Institute uses the response rate from
previous years.
4 The results are the scores obtained by each economy in the
various questions of the Survey. The two terms are used
interchangeably throughout the text.
5 The completion rate is the proportion of answered questions
among a subset of questions in the survey instrument. These
123 core questions are all numerical questions of sections II
through XI.
6 Practically, under the old approach, when, for a particular
country, the ratio of the weight of one sector in the economy to
the percentage of surveys from that sector in the country sample
exceeded 5, the sector weight used for the weighted average was
capped at five times the percentage of surveys from that sector in
the sample. The weights of the other sectors were then adjusted
proportionally to their weight in the countrys GDP.
7 The 2013 scores were computed using a sector-weighted average.
8 The Survey was conducted in 148 economies in 2014. However, in
Brunei Darussalam and Liberia there were not enough responses
collected for inclusion. Therefore, those two countries were
excluded prior to carrying out the IQR test.

OTHER INDICATORS
Indicators not derived from the Survey are presented
in black bar graphs. For each indicator, a short
description appears at the top of the page. The base
period (i.e., the period when a majority of the data was
collected) follows the description. When the year differs
from the base year for a particular economy, this is
indicated in a footnote. Special cases and exceptions are
also mentioned in footnotes. For most indicators, a more
detailed description can be found in the Technical Notes
and Sources section at the end of the Report. When
data are not available or are too outdated, n/a is used in
lieu of the rank and the value.
Because of the nature of data, ties between two or
more economies are possible. In such cases, shared
rankings are indicated accordingly. For example, four
economiesAustralia, Hong Kong SAR, Portugal, and
Singaporeall require two and half days to start a
business. As a result, in table 6.07 (see page 472) they
are all ranked 5th and are listed alphabetically.
The values are usually reported with a precision of
one decimal place. Because of the rounding, we use
0.0 to report some non-zero values. In such cases,
a narrow bar graph is used in order to distinguish
these values from true zero values, for which no bar is
attached. In addition, since the ranks are always based
on the exact, unrounded figures, a non-zero value will
also be ranked higher (or lower, in the case of certain
indicators) than a true zero value.
ONLINE DATA PORTAL
In addition to the analysis presented in this Report,
an interactive data platform can be accessed via
www.weforum.org/gcr. The platform offers a number
of analytical and visualization tools, including sortable
rankings, scatter plots, bar charts, and maps, as well as
the option of downloading portions of the GCI data set.

The total tax rate measures the amount of taxes and mandatory
contributions payable by a business in the second year of
operation, expressed as a share of commercial profits. The
total amount of taxes is the sum of five different types of taxes
and contributions payable after accounting for deductions
and exemptions: profit or corporate income tax, social
contributions and labor taxes paid by the employer, property
taxes, turnover taxes, and other small taxes. For more details

Over more than three decades, The Global Competitiveness Report series has evolved into
the worlds most comprehensive assessment of national competitiveness. This 35th edition is
being released at a time when the global economy finally seems to be recovering from the
worst financial and economic crisis the world has seen in decades. But current economic
growth needs to be strengthened if it is to be robust, generate more productive jobs, and
ensure inclusive growth. Potential risks going forward concern the possible tightening of
financial conditions that may follow a normalization of the monetary policy in the United States
and other advanced economies, a strained geopolitical scenario, and internal social tensions
linked to rising inequality in large economies that could have global consequences.
In the current context, if recovery is to strengthen and generate the high-quality jobs that
societies need and ensure higher sustainable growth, policymakers and business and civil
society leaders need to understand the complex and interrelated forces that drive productivity
and competitiveness. The Global Competitiveness Report 20142015 aims to support these
