Box 2: Sovereign debt crisis, macroeconomic imbalances, and the lack of competitiveness in
Southern Europe
From the beginning of the worst financial and economic
crisis that the Western world has experienced since the
Great Depression, Southern European economies, along
with Ireland, have found themselves in the eye of the storm.
Excessive public spending in the case of Greece, failing
banks in Ireland and more recently Spain following the bursting of a decade-long real estate bubble, and Italys and
Portugals general inability to grow and compete in a globalized environment have brought these economies to the very
edge of sovereign bankruptcy for the first time since the end
of World War II. As a result, these economiesexcept Italy
have been forced to request full or partial international bailouts because of their inability to obtain affordable financing in
the international financial markets.
In parallel with these events, governments in other euro
zone countries (such as Austria, Finland, and Germany) and
noneuro zone countries (such as Sweden, Switzerland, and
the United Kingdom) have benefited from increasingly low,
and sometimes even negative, real interest rates. In some
cases this is the result of the countries traditionally sound
fiscal policies; it is sometimes also a consequence of the high
uncertainty that is driving investors to seek safe locations.
Overall, the sovereign debt crisis reflects the lack of
confidence on the part of the financial markets in the ability
of Southern European economies to balance their public
accounts by curbing public spending and escaping the
vicious circle of high public debt; the need to support banking
systems in difficulties (which can increase national debt); and
diminishing fiscal revenues. The latter are linked to economic
contraction caused by sharp falls in both public and private
consumption and investment, lack of credit, and an inability to
compete internationally as reflected by the persistent current
account deficits (Figure 1).
At present, the vicious cycle seems to be leading these
economies toward a downward spiral of worsening financial

Box 3: Connecting the Americas through better transport, energy, and ICT infrastructure (contd.)
divide of the region compared with other areas in the world,
notably developed economies (Table 1) but also many
Asian economies.1 The severe lag in the region is clearly
reflected in the available Internet bandwidth capacity, which
is only slightly above 20 percent of the OECD average. This
affects the capacity of the already-low number of Internet
users to access fast broadband connections, either through
fixed or mobile devices. Addressing these weaknesses by
improving national infrastructure and intra-national transport,
energy, and ICT connectivity will be crucial moving forward.
Improved infrastructure in all three areas will help increase
national and regional productivity by deepening national and
regional markets, reducing transaction costs, and creating
more favorable conditions for innovation. Engaging in these
resource-intensive projects will require closer collaboration
between the public and private sectors to leverage each
others capacities and resources, and between national
governments to enhance connecting the Americas.

Economic diversification. In oil- and gas-exporting countries, where growth has been high over the past years
because of high energy prices, creating jobs will require
countries to continue efforts to diversify their economies. Given the high wage levels present throughout
these economies, appropriate productivity levels can be
achieved only through expanding into high-value-added,
knowledge-based sectors.
Addressing the skills mismatch. Much progress has been
made in terms of promoting education in the Arab world
over the past several decades. However, as more recent
data show, university degrees do not increase the chances of finding a job in many Arab countries. This situation
points to a misalignment of the skills taught in educational
institutions and the needs of the regions employers.
Indeed, when asked whether their countrys educational
systems are supportive of a competitive economy, business leaders in the region said that private-sector training
schemes could provide solutions in this context. Training
does not appear to be a priority for local businesses,
however.
Promoting meritocracy. In many countries, the public sector is the employer of choice and many of the hiring decisions are based on personal networks rather than formal
qualifications. In the GCI, meritocracy is captured through
two variables: the degree to which employers rely on
professional managers when filling positions as opposed
to friends and relatives, and the relationship between pay
and productivity. On both indicators at least half of the 14
Middle East countries assessed in this Report rank in the
bottom half of the rankings.

Originally, sub-Saharan economies were grouped into oil exporters, middle-income countries, non-fragile low-income countries,
and fragile countries. As Zimbabwe is the only country classified
as fragile in the constant sample, we merge fragile and non-fragile
low-income countries into a single group of low-income countries
for purpose of this trend exercise. See IMF 2012a.
25 The BRICS countries are Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South
Africa.

13 See Almeida and Carneiro 2009; Amin 2009; and Kaplan 2009
for country studies demonstrating the importance of flexible labor
markets for higher employment rates and, therefore, economic
performance.
14 See Aghion and Howitt 1992 and Barro and Sala-i-Martn 2003 for
a technical exposition of technology-based growth theories.
15 A general purpose technology (GPT), according to Trajtenberg
(2005), is one that, in any given period, gives a particular
contribution to an overall economys growth thanks to its ability to
transform the methods of production in a wide array of industries.
Examples of GPTs have been the invention of the steam engine
and the electric dynamo.
16 See Sachs and Warner 1995; Frenkel and Romer 1999; Rodrik
and Rodriguez 1999; Alesina et al. 2005; and Feyrer 2009.
17 This is particularly important in a world in which economic
borders are not as clearly delineated as political ones. In other
words, when Belgium sells goods to the Netherlands, the national
accounts register the transaction as an export (so the Netherlands
is a foreign market for Belgium), but when California sells the
same kind of output to Nevada, the national accounts register
the transaction as domestic (so Nevada is a domestic market for
California).
18 See Romer 1990; Grossman and Helpman 1991; and Aghion and
Howitt 1992.
19 Probably the most famous theory of stages of development was
developed by the American historian W. W. Rostow in the 1960s
(see Rostow 1960). Here we adapt Michael Porters theory of
stages (see Porter 1990). Please see Chapter 1.1 of The Global
Competitiveness Report 20072008 for a complete description
of how we have adapted Michael Porters theory for the present
application.

In order to capture the idea that both high inflation and deflation
are detrimental, inflation enters the model in a U-shaped manner
as follows: for values of inflation between 0.5 and 2.9 percent,
a country receives the highest possible score of 7. Outside this
range, scores decrease linearly as they move away from these
values.

Box 4: Concepts not yet captured by the sustainable competitiveness analysis and areas for future
research
There are a number of areas that we recognize as critical
for sustainable competitiveness but that have not yet been
included in our analysis because of a lack of relevant data.
Our goal is to include and update these elements and more
accurate indicators as relevant and improved data become
available in coming years.
Inclusion of minorities. There is some evidence that
excluding minorities can cause political instability, but no
data are available to assess the actual level of cohesion of
different ethnic groups in a country.
Working conditions. In the context of social sustainability
it is desirable, to meet a certain level of safety conditions
and to ensure that salaries are sufficient to enable full
participation in the countrys prosperity. Although the
International Labour Organization has published statistics
on the quality of working conditions, the data available
cover only a limited number of economies. Until such data
are available for a wide range of countries, they cannot be
considered for a global assessment.

where
ws,c is sector ss contribution to the economy of
country c;
qi,s,c is the mean of the answers to question i from
sector s in country c;
qi,j,s,c is the answer to question i from respondent j in
sector s in country c; and
Ns,c is the number of responses from sector s in
country c.
When for a given country the sample size is too
small or the sectoral representation of the sample is too
different from the actual structure in the economy, the
xi,q,c xq,c
mechanism
described above might not be sufficient
q,c
to prevent an individual response from receiving a
disproportionate weight.8 In such a case the economic
sector stratification average is abandoned and a simple
average of the surveys is applied, where all individual
responses contribute equally to the country score
regardless the sector of activity of the respondents
companies. In 2012, this was the case for seven
countries: Algeria, Burkina Faso, Kuwait, Morocco,
Timor-Leste, Venezuela, and Yemen. Going forward, we
will work closely with our Partner Institutes to increase
the sample size and improve the sector representation in
these countries.
Data weighting: Moving average
As a final step, the sector-weighted country averages for
2012 are combined with the 2011 averages to produce
the country scores that are used for the computation of
the GCI 20122013 and for other projects.
This moving average technique, introduced in 2008,
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 2011
and first quarter of 2012 better aligns the Survey data
with many of the data indicators from sources other than
the Survey, which are often year-average data. For newly
introduced questions, for which no time series exists, the
final country score simply corresponds to the country
score in 2012. Such is the case for indicator 1.13, which
is derived from the new Survey question about the
provision of government services aiming at improving
business performance.
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

The Global Competitiveness Index in detail
This page details the countrys performance on each
of the indicators entering the composition of the GCI.
Indicators are organized by pillar. For indicators entering
at the GCI in two different pillars, only the first instance is
shown on this page.
INDICATOR, UNITS: This column contains the
title of each indicator and, where relevant, the units
in which it is measuredfor example, days or
% GDP. Indicators that are not derived from the
Survey are identified by an asterisk (*). Indicators
derived from the Survey are always expressed
as scores on a 17 scale, with 7 being the most
desirable outcome.
VALUE: This column reports the countrys score on
each indicator.
RANK/144: This column reports the countrys
position among the 144 economies covered by
the GCI 20122013. The ranks of those indicators
that constitute a notable competitive advantage
are highlighted in blue bold typeface (except for
inflation). Competitive advantages are defined as
follows:
For those economies ranked in the top 10 in the
overall GCI, individual indicators ranked from 1
through 10 are considered to be advantages.
For instance, in the case of Germanywhich is
ranked 6th overallits 7th rank on indicator 1.06
Judicial independence makes this indicator a
competitive advantage.

The Global Competitiveness Report series has evolved over the last three decades into the
worlds most comprehensive assessment of national competitiveness. This 33rd edition is being
released amid a long period of economic uncertainty. The tentative recovery that seemed to be
gaining ground during 2010 and the first half of 2011 has given way to renewed concerns. The
global economy faces a number of significant and interrelated challenges that could hamper a
genuine upturn after an economic crisis half a decade long in much of the world, especially in
the most advanced economies.
This context highlights how important it is for nations to recognize and strengthen the
fundamentals of competitiveness as drivers for economic recovery and growth. The Global
Competitiveness Report 20122013 aims to support policymakers, business executives, and
academics as well as the public at large in identifying areas of concern that may be addressed
in a collaborative approach.
Produced in collaboration with leading academics and a global network of Partner Institutes,
The Global Competitiveness Report 20122013 offers users a unique dataset on a broad array
of competitiveness indicators for a record number of 144 economies. The data used in the Report
are obtained from leading international sources as well as from the World Economic Forums
