DATA SOURCES
To measure these concepts, the GCI uses statistical
data such as enrollment rates, government debt, budget
deficit, and life expectancy, which are obtained from
internationally recognized agencies, notably the World
Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the United
Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
(UNESCO), and the World Health Organization (WHO).
The descriptions and data sources of all these statistical
variables are summarized in the Technical Notes and
Sources at the end of this Report. Furthermore, the
GCI uses data from the World Economic Forums
annual Executive Opinion Survey (the Survey) to capture
concepts that require a more qualitative assessment or
for which internationally comparable statistical data are
not available for the entire set of economies. The Survey
administration and computation of the Survey results
used in the GCI are further described in Chapter 1.3 of
this Report.

(Contd.)
Box 3: Switzerland: Five years at the top of the competitiveness rankings (contd.)
1st place ranking in every edition of The Travel & Tourism
Competitiveness Report since it was first released in 2007. 6
Against the current high unemployment in Europe and
other parts of the world, Switzerland compares extremely
well: it boasted an unemployment rate of just 4.2 percent
in 2012. 7 The country has a top-notch labor market that is
both flexible and efficient in deploying its talent (see Table 2).
Employee protection and the interest of employers are well
aligned, with strong employer-employee relations (ranking 1st),
and with conflict resolution resting on social dialogue rather
than responding with strikes. Further, the educational system,
also 1st, is perceived as outstanding, producing a highly
skilled labor force that continues to receive important on-thejob training. 8 Unlike many other countries, Switzerlands labor
force is growing, thanks to the migration of particularly skilled
labor, boosted by the bilateral agreements on free circulation
with the European Union that entered into force in 2002.
Finding ways to integrate more women into the labor force will
be important for enhancing the countrys talent pool further.
The financial market in Switzerland also functions well
and has bounced back to 11th place since the financial crisis.
The findings point to signs of a restoration of confidence in
the banking sector, suggesting that markets are adapting
quickly to the changing reality: the sector itself is diversifying
and still managing to attract a significant client base.
Swiss regulatory authorities have been making progress in
regulating the financial sector and overhauling requirements
to formulate contingency recovery plans. Yet risks remain. The
global crisis has also highlighted the strong interdependence
of the Swiss financial sector with that of the rest of the world,
and its major banks are considered too big to fail not only
for Switzerland but also globally. 9 Repercussions elsewhere
in the world impact the Swiss economy, as evidenced by
the historically low interest rates in Switzerland, giving rise
to high mortgage lending. Disputes about tax evasion and
continued pressure from other countries are ushering the
end of the countrys bank secrecy, which may require further
adjustments.
Innovation
Innovation is not just about coming up with new productsit
is also about doing things differently. For this to happen,
the entire innovation ecosystem, which consists of a set of
closely intertwined and reinforcing factors, is critical. In the
case of Switzerland, an excellent innovation ecosystem has
been a significant part of making the country an attractive
place to work for highly qualified people. Its well-functioning
labor market and excellent educational system provide the
fundamentals for innovation to prosper, instigating the close
relationships among enterprises, universities, and research
institutes that have made the country a top innovator. Its
scientific research institutions are among the worlds best,
and the strong collaboration between its academic and
business sectors, combined with high company spending
on research and development, ensures that much of
this research is translated into marketable products and
processes reinforced by strong intellectual property
protection. This robust innovative capacity is captured by its
high rate of patenting per capita, for which Switzerland ranks
2nd.

above, six of them are among the top 10. In total, 10 are
among the top 20, as follows: Switzerland (1st), Finland
(3rd), Germany (4th), Sweden (6th), the Netherlands
(8th), the United Kingdom (10th), Norway (11th), Denmark
(15th), Austria (16th), and Belgium (17th). However,
Europe is also a region with significant disparities in
competitiveness, with several countries from the region
significantly lower in the rankings (with Spain at 35th,
Italy at 49th, Portugal at 51st, and Greece at 91st). As in
previous years, North American countries feature among
the most competitive economies worldwide, with the
United States occupying the 5th position and Canada
the 14th.
Norway rises by four places in the rankings to a
remarkable 11th this year, with progress in a number
of areas. Specifically, the country features a notable
improvement in the uptake of ICTs, particularly increasing
Internet bandwidth and greater penetration of mobile
broadband. Similar to the other Nordic countries,
Norway is further characterized by well-functioning and
transparent public institutions; private institutions also get
The RCI uses NUTS 2 regions, which are the basic territorial
units for the application of regional policies. They are defined by
the Commission regulation on nomenclature of territorial units for
statistics (from the French Nomenclature des Units Territoriales
Statistiques, or NUTS). NUTS level 2 refers to regions with an
average population size between 800,000 and 3 million.

number of regional initiatives, launched in the 1990s following
the accession of less developed members and aimed at
reducing the developmental gap, have proven quite effective.
These include the Initiative for ASEAN Integration and the
Master Plan on ASEAN connectivity.
Although the responsibility for addressing the structural
issues described above lies primarily with national actors,
regional cooperation is critical. Efforts at the country and
regional levels are complementary and reinforce each other.
They enable Member States to leverage growth opportunities
and strengthen their respective competitive advantages to
For the sake of readability, we refer only to the first year (e.g.,
2006 instead of 20062007) of the Index edition that corresponds

Sub-Saharan Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa continues its impressive growth rate
of close to 5 percent in 2012 (with similar projections
for the next two years), providing something of a
silver lining in an otherwise uncertain global economy.
Indeed, only emerging Asia registers higher growth.
Growth has largely taken place on the backs of strong
investment, favorable commodity prices, and a prudent
macroeconomic stance.
There are, however, some regional variations, and
in fact, in terms of underlying competitiveness, subSaharan Africa continues to reflect one of significant
regional variations in the GCI, ranging from Mauritius
(overtaking South Africa and coming in at 45th this
year) to the lowest ranked Chad at 148th. Economies
with closer ties to advanced economies, such as South
Africa, have not yet returned to pre-crisis growth rates.
More generally, sub-Saharan Africa as a whole trails the
rest of the world in competitiveness, requiring efforts
across many areas to place the region on a firmly
sustainable growth and development path going forward:
the region continues to register a profound infrastructure
deficit. In addition, sub-Saharan Africa overall continues
to underperform significantly in providing health and
basic education (only Mauritius and Seychelles rank
in the upper half of the rankings). Higher education
and training also need to be further developed. The
regions poor performance across all basic requirements
for competitiveness stands in stark contrast to
its comparatively stronger performance in market
efficiency, where particularly the regions middle-income
economies fare relatively well (South Africa, Mauritius,
and Kenya rank in the top 20 percent in financial market
development). Moving forward, technological uptake
continues to remain weak, with only three economies
(South Africa, Mauritius, and Seychelles) featuring in the
top half of the overall GCI rankings on this pillar.
Mauritius moves up by nine places this year to
45th place, becoming the highest ranked country in the
region. The country benefits from relatively strong and
transparent public institutions (39th), with clear property
rights, strong judicial independence, and an efficient
government (29th). Private institutions are rated as highly
accountable (14th), with effective auditing and accounting
standards and strong investor protection. The countrys
infrastructure is well developed by regional standards
(50th), particularly its ports, air transport, and roads.
Furthermore, notable improvements have taken place
in the areas of market efficiency. Financial markets have
deepened, lifting Mauritius rank up to 26th on the back
of improved access to different modes of financing and
financial services. This is further reflected in company
spending on R&Dwhich seems to be increasing, albeit
from low levelsthus somewhat enhancing Mauritius
innovative capacity. Furthermore, the country boasts an
efficient goods market (25th) driven by greater foreign

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.

* This is the GCI rank, as presented in Chapter 1.1. Only the 121 countries 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/

Technical notes and sources for sustainability indicators
Vulnerable employment refers to unpaid family workers and ownaccount workers as a percentage of total employmentthat
is, the share of own-account and contributing family workers in
total employment. A contributing family worker is a person who
is self-employed in a market-oriented establishment operated by
a related person living in the same household, and who cannot
be regarded as a partner because of the degree of his or her
commitment to the operation of the establishment, in terms of
the working time or other factors to be determined by national
circumstances, is not at a level comparable with that of the head
of the establishment.

Note: All statistics were computed following the editing process. See text for details. * The table reports the information about the two Survey editions used in the computation of the two-year
weighted average score. See Box 2 for explanation. For these countries, we are working closely with Partner Institutes to increase the sample size. Survey edition(s) used for the computation
of country scores are as follows: 2011 and 2013; 2012; 2013. See Box 2 for details about exceptions.

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 mechanism described above might not be sufficient
to prevent an individual response from receiving a
disproportionate weight.11 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

This is the final score used in the computation of the GCI and reported in Table 7.03 (see page 490). 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 For Forum competitiveness publications, please see http://www.
weforum.org/content/pages/competitiveness-library.
2 For a number of countries, 2013 data were not used. Please see
the data-editing section for further details.
3 The Executive Opinion Survey 2013 is available in the following 41
languages13 more than last year: Albanian, Arabic, Armenian,
Azeri, Bosnian, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Burmese,
Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Estonian, English, French,
German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Khmer,
Korean, Lao, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Mongolian,
Montenegrin, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian,
Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Turkish, Urdu, and
Vietnamese.
4 In the case of Tajikistan, the Survey was not conducted because
of a lack of clearance for its administration.
5 The World Economic Forums Global Competitiveness and
Benchmarking Network would like to acknowledge e-Rewards
Market Research for carrying out the Executive Opinion Survey
2013 in the United States, collecting over 670 surveys following
the detailed sampling guidelines. Furthermore, e-Rewards
supplemented a sample of 128 in Germany as well as 71 in India.
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.

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. A more detailed description and
the full source for each indicator 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 countries are possible. In such cases, shared
rankings are indicated accordingly. For example, in both
Canada and New Zealand the number of procedures to
start a business amount to one. As a result, in table 6.06
(see page 475) the two countries are both ranked 1st
and listed alphabetically.
The values are usually reported with a precision
of one decimal place. Because of the rounding, some
non-zero values are reported as 0.0. 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 possibility of downloading portions of the GCI
data set.

1.21 Strength of investor protection
Strength of Investor Protection Index on a 010 (best) scale |
2012
This indicator is a combination of the Extent of disclosure index
(transparency of transactions), the Extent of director liability index
(liability for self-dealing), and the Ease of shareholder suit index
(shareholders ability to sue officers and directors for misconduct).

2.06 Available airline seat kilometers
Scheduled available airline seat kilometers per week originating
in country (in millions) | Jan 2013Jul 2013
This indicator measures the total passenger-carrying capacity of
all scheduled flights, including domestic flights, originating in a
country. It is computed by taking the number of seats available on
each flight multiplied by the flight distance in kilometers, summing
the result across all scheduled flights in a week during January
(winter schedule) and July (summer schedule) 2013, and taking
the average capacity of the two weeks.

3.03 Inflation
Annual percent change in consumer price index (year average)
| 2012
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.

Database (April 2013 edition)
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 about the
methodology employed and the assumptions made to compute
this indicator, please visit http://www.doingbusiness.org/

benefit more from globalization. The Commission consisted of Heads of State and governments,
politicians, experts, and representatives from international and regional organizations as
well as the business community, civil society and the academic world. The majority of the
Commissioners were from Africa, which reflected the Commissions overriding commitment to
ensure African ownership of its recommendations and initiatives.
The Africa Commission presented its findings in the report Realising the Potential of Africas
Youth, which was published in May 2009. Drawing on existing analyses and best practices, the
Africa Commission presented specific policy recommendations and launched five international
initiatives aimed at creating jobs for young men and women in Africa through private sectorled
growth and improved competitiveness of African economies. Special emphasis was given to
creating decent jobs, fostering entrepreneurship, and providing greater opportunities through
education, skills development and access to finance.
Over more than three decades, The Global Competitiveness Report series has evolved into the
worlds most comprehensive assessment of national competitiveness. This 34th edition is being
released at a time when the global economy is undergoing significant shifts. The global financial
crisis and the ensuing developments have heightened the role of emerging economies in the
global economy. This has accelerated the major economic transformations already underway,
which have fueled rapid growth and pulled millions of people out of poverty. Yet, although the
global economys prospects are more positive than they were when we released last years
Report, growth has begun to slow across many emerging economies, and advanced economies
in Europe and elsewhere continue to struggle.
In the current context, policymakers must avoid complacency and press ahead with the structural
reforms and critical investments required to ensure that their countries can continue to strive to
provide rising prosperity and employment for their citizens. The current situation 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 20132014 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 20132014 offers users a unique dataset on a broad array of
competitiveness indicators for a record number of 148 economies. The data used in the Report
are obtained from leading international sources as well as from the World Economic Forums
annual Executive Opinion Survey, a unique source that captures the perspectives of more than
13,000 thousand business leaders on topics related to national competitiveness.
The Report presents the rankings of the Global Competitiveness Index (GCI). The GCI is based on
12 pillars of competitiveness, providing a comprehensive picture of the competitiveness
landscape in countries around the world at different stages of economic development. The Report
contains detailed profiles highlighting competitive strengths and weaknesses for each of the 148
economies featured, as well as an extensive section of data tables displaying relative rankings for
more than 100 variables.
The Report and an interactive data platform are available at www.weforum.org/gcr.
