1Introduction

2 Measuring Governance

The Ibrahim Index of African Governance (IIAG)


quantitatively measures the quality of governance in
African countries. It does this by combining data from
diverse sources into composite governance indicators one
broad governance measure and several measures of the
sub-dimensions of governance. The composites are simply
and transparently constructed. This document contains a
thorough and complete explanation of exactly how this
is done. In addition, the Mo Ibrahim Foundation publishes
a complete dataset containing both the underlying data
used for the computation of the composites, as well as
the overarching governance measure and the measures of
the sub-dimensions of governance1. Computer code for
processing the data and the computation of the composites,
written in a statistical programming language called R2, is
also provided. (The Foundation also independently processes
the data and computes the composites in Excel.)

To measure the governance construct, we must rst


conceptualise and dene governance and its dimensions.
Second, we operationalise the measure by selecting variables
and making assumptions about the information and error
contained therein.

All measurements, however careful, are made with error,


and in recognition of this fact, the Foundation quantitatively
estimates the condence with which our measurements are
made. The method by which these estimates are arrived at is
also explained in this document.
The description of the Foundations methodology begins
in Section 2.1, with the Foundations conceptualisation of
governance. A technical discussion of the assumptions we
make about our measurement data follows in Section 2.2,
as well as an explanation of how we select and process the
underlying measurements. Finally, in Section 3, we discuss
how we estimate the amount of error in our measurements.
In what follows, the dataset containing the broad governance
measure, its dimensions and sub-dimensions as well as the
underlying data will be referred to as the IIAG.

2.1Conceptualisation
The Mo Ibrahim Foundation denes governance as the
provision of the political, social and economic public goods
and services that a citizen has the right to expect from his or
her state, and that a state has the responsibility to deliver to
its citizens. We are concerned with outputs and outcomes of
policy, rather than declarations of intent and de jure statutes,
though at times it is necessary to use measurements of the
presence of laws.
The governance framework has been constructed by the
Foundations Board and the IIAG Advisory Council3 to have
four dimensions (or categories); namely, Safety & Rule of
Law, Participation & Human Rights, Sustainable Economic
Opportunity, and Human Development. These categories are
made up of a total of 14 sub-categories (see Table 1).

1.1 Revisions to the IIAG


The IIAG is an annual publication, each iteration of which is
rened. Improvements could be methodological, or based on
the inclusion of new data. Occasionally it is also necessary
to exclude existing variables if they undergo fundamental
methodological changes or imperfections are discovered.
Retrospective revisions at source mean that it is sometimes
necessary to update the previously published data.
These changes are made to the entire dataset, for all years
covered by the IIAG, not just the most recent year. The
retrospective revision means that any of the 2013 IIAG
composites for a particular country and year may be different
from the 2012 IIAG composites for the same country and
year. Comparisons between years should therefore be made
entirely within the 2013 IIAG.

2.2Operationalisation
As governance and its dimensions are not directly observable
that is, it is not possible to measure them as easily as
distance, for example each construct is operationalised
as a composite indicator of its sub-components. The broad
governance measure is estimated from its underlying
four categories by taking the average of the four category
estimates; these category estimates are obtained by taking
the average of their sub-categories estimates. Finally, each
sub-category estimate is the average of the realisations of its
underlying sub-components.
Each underlying indicator measures a narrow governance
concept such as the level of freedom of expression.

2013 IIAG METHODOLOGY

Further, some variables are deemed to measure something


which is too narrow for inclusion as an indicator. In this
case, it is possible to include the variable in a clustered
indicator measuring a slightly broader concept. For
example, the variables Mobile Phone Subscribers, Household
Computers and Internet Subscribers from the International
Telecommunications Union database are included in the
clustered indicator Digital Connectivity.
Out of the 133 variables included in the 2013 IIAG, 68 are
clustered into 29 clustered indicators, which means that the
IIAG contains 94 indicators in total. These variables come
from 32 data providers, and this diversity of sources means
that measurement error in the composite is minimised, as we
shall see in Section 2.2.1.

that the jth indicator belongs to the k[j]th sub-category we


have
Itij = Stik[j] + tij,

(1)

where the errors tij are assumed to have zero mean


[tij ] = 0; and are assumed to be uncorrelated across
indicators: [tij t i j ] = 0, for all t and t.

The assumption of orthogonality across indicators can


be justied using the Ination and Budget Management
indicators in the Public Management sub-category as an
example. Both indicators misestimate Public Management
by some amount, but because the indicators come from two
very different sources in this case the African Statistical
Yearbook and the African Development Bank there is no
reason to suppose that when one indicator overestimates
Public Management then the other will too (for example).

This assumption is essential because it allows us to


distinguish between noise and signal in the indicator values.
Because of it, any correlation between indicators arises
as a result of a latent governance dimension. Suppose for
instance that both the j1th and j2th indicators belong to the
kth sub-category. Then

As was mentioned in Section 2.1, it is sometimes necessary


to include in the IIAG variables which measure legal or
institutional frameworks rather than outputs or outcomes,
when data on outcomes are not available. For instance,
the IIAG includes an indicator that captures the existence
of legislation on violence against women, as there are no
includable statistics on the scope, prevalence and incidence
of such violence.

[Itij1 Itij2 |Stik ] = [(Stik + tij1 )(Stik + tij2 )|Stik ] (2)

2.2.1 Technical Assumptions

where || < 1 and the etij are independent and identically


distributed satisfying [etij |t1ij ] = 0 and Var(etij |t1ij) =
e.

To compute country-year point estimates and error


estimates for the IIAG composites, we must make
assumptions about the information contained in the
constituent indicators. To this end, let Mti be the true broad
governance score for country i in year t; let Ctij , Stij , and
Itij be the jth true category-, sub-category- and indicatorscore for country i in year t, respectively. We will refer to our
estimates of these quantities as Mti, Ctij, Stij , and Itij.
The central underlying assumption is that each indicator
score is the true value of the sub-category score to which
it belongs plus some error. This is reasonable, because each
constituent indicator measures something specic e.g. the
Primary School Completion indicator but when included in
a sub-category it is expected to measure a broader concept
in this instance the indicator is included in the Education subcategory. Even if primary school education in a country is
very good, it is possible for secondary and tertiary education
to be less well developed, and therefore the primary school
completion rate likely overestimates the adequacy of
education provided in a country. It is this misestimation,
as well as the error due to measurement instrument
imprecision, which is captured in the error term.
The relationship between sub-categories and indicators can
be expressed in mathematical terms as follows. Supposing

= Stik, (3)

since the errors are uncorrelated with mean zero.


In addition, the tij are assumed to be an autoregressive
process of order one

tij = t1ij + etij, (4)

The assumption that the errors are an autoregressive process


means that the errors are correlated in time that is, if an
indicator overestimates a sub-category score in one year, it
is very likely to overestimate it in the next year as well. This
correlation is captured in the parameter , which for the data
we use typically takes values near one.
As mentioned previously, the true sub-category score is
estimated using the mean of the indicator scores. Expressing
this relationship in mathematical terms we have

1
Stij =
I ,
| I j | k I j tik

(5)

where Ij is the set of indicators in the jth sub-category,


and Itij is a realisation of Itij. This is consistent with the
assumption that there is no systematic bias in the errors
across indicators, since it means that the errors, estimated
by the residuals tij = Itij Stik[j], cancel across variables
kIjtik = 0. In Section 3 we explain how we combine the
measurement errors discussed above with the error due to
missingness in the data to compute standard errors for the
point estimates.

2013 IBR AHIM INDEX OF AFRICAN GOVERNANCE | DATA REPORT

Sometimes variables measuring one of these narrow


concepts are available from multiple sources. For example,
freedom of expression is measured by three different data
sources: the Bertelsmann Stiftung, the Cingranelli-Richards
Human Rights Data Project, and Freedom House. To improve
the accuracy of the indicator measurement and to avoid
double counting, all these underlying variables are combined
by taking averages into a single clustered indicator.

2013 IIAG METHODOLOGY

It is also assumed that the broad governance score and


category scores are estimated by the mean of the categories
and sub-categories respectively

M ti = Ctij

Ctij =

| S j | k S j tik

where C is the number of categories in the broad governance


measure and Sj is the set of sub-categories belonging to the
jth category.
2.2.1.1 Aggregation and Weighting
We use linear, additive aggregation and nominally weight4
each sub-component equally within its dimension. This
method compares favourably with other methods of
aggregation5, and further it offers the added benet of
simplicity and transparency.
2.2.2 Variable Selection
As far as construct validity is concerned, the most important
decision is which variables to include. Once a variable is
regarded as a suitable governance proxy other inclusion
criteria based on statistical concerns are applied.
For each dataset under consideration data missingness is a
large issue. In particular, the number of countries covered by
a variable in a certain year; the number of years covered in a
variable-country timeseries; the periodicity of the data; and
the age of the data are four parameters which all impact on
the precision of the composite estimates.
Indeed, as was mentioned in Section 2.2.1, the uncertainty
associated with each point estimate is due partly to the
error in measuring the latent governance dimension, and
partly due to error imputing missing data. There is a tradeoff between these two sources of error. Including more
data may mean including more sparse data, and therefore
accruing more error due to missingness, while including more
data may also mean that the measurement error decreases,
since the measurement errors are assumed to cancel across
variables. There is further balancing required between
the categories and the broad governance measure, in the
sense that the errors may be minimised for one category
at a particular set of the above four parameters, while the
errors of another category are minimised at another set of
parameters.
Given these considerations, we require data for at least 34
4 See Decancq and Lugo (2008) for a survey of weighting methods.
5 Chowdhury and Squire (2006) show that equal weighting is
similar to the weighting proposed by experts for the Human
Development Index; see Cherchye (2001) and Lee et al. (2006)
for examples of using data envelopment to construct a composite
indicator; see de Kruijk and Rutten (2007) and Hagerty and Land
(2007) for a composite indicators weighted using survey data; see
Krishnakumar and Ballon (2008) for a discussion of using latent
variable methodology.

countries for each variable-year; that each variable contains


data from at least two years; and that the most recent data
are no more than three years old.
Once the decision has been made to include a variable, it is
assigned to one of the 14 sub-categories in which it sits best
conceptually using the judgment of the Research Team in
collaboration with the IIAG Advisory Council. This process is
not always straightforward as the dimensions of governance
are not independent and as such a variable may be deemed
suitable for multiple sub-categories.
2.2.3Outliers
Some of the variables which are thought to measure some
aspect of governance, and which the selection criteria above
deem allowable, contain data which can be considered
anomalous, because some of the observations are a long
way from the mass of the variable distribution. Including
such outliers in the IIAG can bias the composite indicator
scores, and more subtly means that after normalisation6
the variable at (double precision) may no longer be able to
distinguish between countries. Hence each year the collected
raw data is analysed to determine whether any of the
variables require treatment to address outliers.
In the 2013 IIAG, eight variables required treatment to
reduce the effects of outliers: Ination, Political Refugees,
Internally Displaced People, Reserves, Ratio of External Debt
Service to Exports, Ratio of Total Revenue to Total Expenditure,
Internet Subscribers, and Tertiary Enrolment.
These variables were ltered according to the following
scheme. The trimmed mean and trimmed standard deviation
of the variable were computed on the central 95% of the
empirical variable distribution (i.e., the bottom and top 2.5%
were not used to compute mean and standard deviation). All
observations more than 3 trimmed standard deviations away
from the trimmed mean were replaced by the minimum of
the observation and the trimmed mean plus 3.1 times the
trimmed standard deviation, if they were in the right tail; and
replaced by the maximum of observation and the trimmed
mean minus 3.1 times the trimmed standard deviation, if
they were in the left tail.
In other words, let xti be the variable score for a country i
in year t. Let q2.5 and q97.5 be the 2.5 and 97.5 percentiles
of the empirical distribution of the variable; that is q2.5 and
q97.5 are such that

{xti q2.5} = 2.5 and {xti q97.5} = 97.5. (8)

Let and 2 respectively be the mean and variance of the set


{xti : q2.5 xti q97.5}. For all xti such that xti 3 we
replace xti with xti = max{xti, 3.1} while for all xti such
that xti + 3 we replace xti with xti = min{xti, + 3.1}.

6 See Section 2.2.5.

2013 IIAG METHODOLOGY

2.2.4.1 Imputation Caveats

Many of the 133 variables included in the IIAG have data


missing and to avoid biasing the broad governance measure,
category and sub-category scores it is necessary to impute
them. To determine the most suitable method of imputation,
simulation experiments were conducted7, where, starting
with the 2012 IIAG dataset, a predetermined proportion
of present data were deleted using various missingness
mechanisms. The deleted data were then imputed using
a range of methods. From the point of view of accuracy,
precision, and the amount of missingness remaining after
imputation, it was determined that the best method of
imputation was linear interpolation for missing data which
are in the interior of the timeseries, with exterior missing
values replaced using last value carried forward (LVCF) and
rst value carried backward (FVCB).

There are some timeseries which we do not impute. For


instance, using linear interpolation, it is not possible to
impute values for those countries for which a variable has
no data at all. For those timeseries where all but one point is
missing, it has been determined that imputing the timeseries
using LVCF/FVCB is inappropriate because of the inaccuracies
incurred.

Let xti be the raw data value of a variable for country i in


year t. Suppose that there is no data for year t2, and that
there is data for the years t1 and t3. Suppose also that t1
and t3 are the closest such years to t2 with the property
that t1<t2<t3. We replace the missing value at t2 with the
estimate

x t i = x t i +(t 2 t 1 )
2

xt i xt i
3

t3 t1

(9)

To explain this further, suppose that the rst row of Table 2


contains raw data for country A. There are interior missing
values for Year 4 and Year 5; and an exterior missing value
for Year 1. We impute the missing data for Year 1 using FVCB
to obtain the data in the second row of Table 2, where the
exterior imputed value is in bold.
The interior missing values are imputed using linear
interpolation that is, Equation 9. For instance, the missing
value for Year 4 is replaced by

84.8 +(4 3)

(82.8 84.8)
= 84.1 .
63

(10)

84.8 +(5 3)

(82.8 84.8)
= 83.5.

These imputations are in italic in Table 2.

In both of the above cases, however, the missingness


error still reects the uncertainty which the missingness
introduces.
2.2.5Normalisation
Data utilised in the construction of the IIAG come from 32
separate institutions and as a result are often produced
on different scales at source. In order for them to be
meaningfully combined, raw data are normalised before
being included in the IIAG. The data for each variable are
transformed using the min-max normalisation method,
which performs an order-preserving linear transformation of
the data. The min-max normalisation subtracts the minimum
value of a variables entire raw dataset (20002012) from
each countrys value for that variable in a particular year; the
result is then divided by the range of the variable (maximum
value in the raw dataset minus the minimum value in the raw
dataset). In other words, let xti be the raw data value of a
variable for country i in year t. Let
m = min(xti : all years t and all countries i) (12)
and

M = max(xti : all years t and all countries i) (13)

The missing value for Year 5 is replaced by

In addition, for the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/


AIDS variables Antiretroviral Treatment Provision and
Antiretroviral Treatment Provision for Pregnant Women, it has
been determined through engagement with the data provider
that for the year 2000 the value for both these variables
should be 0 for all countries. It was also determined that
imputing data using linear interpolation between the year
2000 and the next available datapoint will introduce large
inaccuracies.

be respectively the minimum and maximum value of the


variable over all years and countries. Then the min-max
normalised score is

x ti m
100 . (14)
M m

This method of normalisation allows all scores to be


published in common units and within the same bounds of
0100, where 100 is always the best possible score (this may
require reversing the polarity of a variable by subtracting its
score from 100, in cases where lower values are better).

Poor data quality must be accounted for in order for the IIAG
user not to be excessively condent about small changes
over time, and slight score differences between countries.

2013 IIAG METHODOLOGY

2013 IBR AHIM INDEX OF AFRICAN GOVERNANCE | DATA REPORT

The Foundation publishes standard errors and condence


intervals alongside the broad governance measure and
category scores to reect uncertainty.
The measurements of the broad governance and category
scores are made with error which are assumed to arise
from two places. First, it is assumed that each variable is
a measurement of the true sub-category score plus some
measurement error (see Equation 1 in Section 2.2.1). It
is also assumed that the imputation of missing values is
made with missingness error. These two types of error are
combined using Rubins formula8 to obtain the standard error
of the measurement.

3.1 Measurement Error

References

Since the measurement error is assumed to occur between


the variable value and the true value of the sub-categories,
we can estimate the distribution of the broad governance
and category score errors for a particular country-year by
computing them for a resampled set of variable values. The
standard deviations of the bootstrapped9 broad governance
and category error distributions give an estimate of the
measurement error.

Cherchye, L. (2001). Using data envelopment analysis to


assess macroeconomic policy performance. Applied
Economics, 33(3):407416.

3.2 Missingness Error


To compute the error due to missingness we multiply
impute each missing value, using the method of imputation
described in Section 2.2.4, with a slight modication. After
imputation, the data are perturbed slightly by adding
realisations of a normal random variable with mean 0
and variance equal to the variance of the variable over all
years. In other words, let xti be the raw data value of a
variable for country i in year t. Let 2 = Var{xti : all years t
and all countries i}. For an imputed datapoint xti, dene
the perturbed data to be xti = xti + , where N(0, 2).
The entire dataset is imputed several times with different
realisations of the perturbations, and the broad governance
and composite scores for each imputation are computed. The
missingess error for a category for instance is estimated
by the standard deviation of the category scores across
imputations.
3.3 Cross Country Condence Intervals
The standard errors obtained by combining the measurement
and missingness errors are used to construct 90% condence
intervals, using the normal approximation. These condence
intervals allow users of the IIAG to discriminate, to a certain
degree, between countries and years. Note that score or rank
comparisons between countries with overlapping condence
intervals should be avoided, since they could reect a
statistical tie.
Table 3 demonstrates that, because of the overlap of the
condence intervals, it cannot be said that Country As
overall governance performance is denitely better than that
of Country B.

2013 IBR AHIM INDEX OF AFRICAN GOVERNANCE | DATA REPORT

Measurement Imprecision in the 2013 IIAG


All governance indices are subject to margins of error,
and the IIAG is no exception. Poor data quality must be
accounted for in order for the IIAG user not to be excessively
confident about small changes over time, and slight score
differences between countries. The Foundation publishes
standard errors and confidence intervals alongside the overall
governance and category scores to reflect uncertainty.
The two main sources of uncertainty in the IIAG are
measurement error the error due to variation between the
value as measured by the source and its true value and
missingness error, the error due to missing data. These types
of error are combined to produce the measurement and
missingness margin of error (MOE) for each country in each
year at the overall and category levels.
The standard errors obtained by combining the measurement
and missingness errors are used to construct 90% confidence
intervals, using the normal approximation. Cross-country
comparisons and time series comparisons must be made with
caution. When confidence intervals overlap for two countries
or for two years, the difference in governance scores are too
small to be statistically significant. For example, if a country
with a score of 53 has a margin of error of +/- 8, the precise
score could be anywhere in the range of 45 and 61. If another
country has a score of 55 with the same margin of error, then
that countrys score could be as low as 47 and as high as 63.
Statistically, the scores of both countries are tied.
The graph shows the margins of error associated with each
countrys overall IIAG score in 2012.
The bars associated with each country represent the range
in which we are 90% confident that the countrys true score
lies.

Extrajudicial killings are killings by government officials


without due process of law. They include murders by private
groups if instigated by government. These killings may result
from the deliberate, illegal, and excessive use of lethal force
by the police, security forces, or other agents of the state
whether against criminal suspects, detainees, prisoners, or
others.
Political imprisonment refers to the incarceration of people
by government officials because of: their speech; their
non-violent opposition to government policies or leaders;
their religious beliefs; their non-violent religious practices
including proselytising; or their membership in a group,
including an ethnic or racial group.
Disappearances are cases in which people have disappeared,
political motivation appears likely, and the victims have
not been found. Knowledge of the whereabouts of the
disappeared is, by definition, not public knowledge. However,
while there is typically no way of knowing where victims are,
it is typically known by whom they were taken and under
what circumstances.

Political Terror (PTS PTS)


This variable assesses the degree of state terror, which
is defined as violations of physical or personal integrity
rights carried out by a state (or its agents), with terror
referring specifically to state-sanctioned killings, torture,

Trafficking in persons and human trafficking have been


used as umbrella terms for the act of recruiting, harbouring,
transporting, providing, or obtaining a person for compelled
labour or commercial sex acts through the use of force,
fraud, or coercion. The [US] Trafficking Victims Protection
Act defines severe forms of trafficking in persons as (a)
sex trafficking in which a commercial sex act is induced by
force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to
perform such an act has not attained 18 years of age; or (b)
the recruitment, harbouring, transportation, provision, or
obtaining of a person for labour or services, through the use
of force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of subjection to
involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bondage, or slavery.
A victim need not be physically transported from one
location to another in order for the crime to fall within these
definitions.

Government Involvement in Armed Conflict (UCDP/PRIO UCDP)


This indicator assesses the extent to which a government is
involved in an armed conflict. It is coded by the Mo Ibrahim
Foundation using the following variables at source: Primary
Party in armed conflict and Secondary Party in armed
conflict.
An armed conflict is a contested incompatibility that
concerns government and/or territory where the use of
armed force between two parties, of which at least one is the
government of a state, results in at least 25 battle-related
deaths in one calendar year.
Primary Parties are identified as the parties that have formed
the incompatibility. Secondary Parties are identified as a
state or a coalition of states which shares the incompatibility
with one of the sides in the conflict and actively supports
it with troops. A secondary warring party does not need to
meet the 25 battle-related deaths criteria; an active troop
participation of their forces is enough.

Effective Power to Govern (BTI BS)


This indicator assesses the extent to which democratically
elected political representatives have the effective power
to govern, or the extent to which there are veto powers and
political enclaves. Veto powers refer to individuals or groups
who have the power to undermine democratic procedures
without questioning the system as such. Veto powers can
come from the military, the clergy, landowners, business
elites, and external actors, among others. They can veto the
results of democratic decisions or retain prerogatives that
cannot be touched by democratically elected officeholders
(e.g. nominating the commander-in-chief of the armed
forces). This point is distinct from the stateness criterion;
guerrillas, paramilitaries and state-free regions (in slums,
or in rural areas) are not the veto powers referred to in this
indicator.

2013 IIAG INDICATORS AND VARIABLES

Welfare Regime (BTI BS)


This indicator assesses the extent to which social safety
nets exist to compensate for social risks and the extent
to which equality of opportunity exists. Social safety nets
compensate for the social risks of the capitalist economic
system, such as unemployment or poverty, and alleviate
handicaps such as old age, illness or disability. This variable
assesses the forms of compensation: cash and conditional
cash transfers, subsidies, waivers, food programs, educational
or empowerment initiatives; the funding: tax, redistribution,
pay-as-you-go, investment funds; and the structure of the
welfare regime: public, private or both. In countries that do
not provide comprehensive, state-funded welfare systems,
social safety nets can refer to those arrangements that
are functionally equivalent to formal compensation for
social risks. Social safety nets may also comprise family,
clan or village structures, if these structures can provide
viable compensation on a broad scale for risks. The equal
opportunity component is directed at finding out to what
extent individuals have equal access to participation in
society regardless of their social background. This includes
equal access to education, public office or employment. The
equality of opportunity for women, ethnic or religious groups
are evaluated explicitly, as are the legal provisions and their
implementation and enforcement.

Social Exclusion (BTI BS)


This indicator assesses the extent to which significant
parts of the population are fundamentally excluded from
society due to poverty and inequality. Poverty combined
with inequality leads to serious social exclusion that
fundamentally impedes participation in otherwise potentially
functional market economies. This variables assessed the
level of social exclusion as a determining factor for economic
transformation, referring to structural exclusion, not to
the output strength of a countrys economy as reflected in
macroeconomic data. Factors taken into account include the
overall level of socioeconomic development; the poverty
rate; the level of inequality with regard to income and
education; the level of exclusion based on gender, religion
and ethnicity; and the scope of subsistence economy. The
UNDPs Human Development Index (HDI), the poverty rate
and the Gini coefficient are used for comparability.

Equity of Public Resource Use (CPA AfDB)
This variable assesses the extent to which the pattern of
public expenditures and revenue collection affects the
poor and is consistent with national poverty reduction
priorities. The assessment of the consistency of government
spending with the poverty reduction priorities takes into
account the extent to which: (a) individuals, groups, or
localities that are poor, vulnerable, or have unequal access
to services and opportunities are identified; (b) a national
development strategy with explicit interventions to assist
the groups identified in (a) has been adopted; and (c) the
composition and incidence of public expenditures are tracked
systematically and their results feedback into subsequent
resource allocation decisions. The assessment of the revenue
collection dimension takes into account the incidence of
major taxes and their alignment with the poverty reduction
priorities. The expenditure component receives two thirds of

externalisation of costs or inadequate time horizons are
avoided or restrained by environmental regulation. In
macroeconomic terms, it assesses whether tax and energy
policies take ecological goals and measures into account (e.g.
promotion of renewable energies, CO2 reduction goals). In
microeconomic terms, it assesses whether the government
sets incentives for environmentally sound consumption
and investments to households and companies. A deeply

Notes

2013 IBR AHIM INDEX OF AFRICAN GOVERNANCE | DATA REPORT

Regional Groupings
All figures have been rounded to the nearest one decimal
place. This means that countries may appear to have the
same score, or the change over time may appear inaccurate,
but this is not the case when all decimal places are taken into
account. Countries have been ranked and trends have been
described on the basis of full scores not the rounded numbers
that appear here.
Regional groupings referred to in the IIAG are those used by
the African Development Bank. For the full list of the regional
groupings, see right.
Users are encouraged to consider the margins of error and
confidence intervals published alongside the overall and
category scores when analysing scores and ranks. Score or
rank comparison when differences across countries are small
should be avoided since they may reflect a statistical tie.
Somalia has no underlying raw data for all indicators in the
Rural Sector sub-category and therefore is not given a score
or rank. These cases are indicated with a ..
insufficient availability of data for these two new countries.
All of the underlying raw data used in the computation of the
IIAG along with the normalised scores, as calculated for the
expressed purposes of the IIAG are available online at:
www.moibrahimfoundation.org
All data are available in Excel .xlsx and .csv files.
Additional Country and Regional Information provided on the
Regional and Country Performance pages are not used in the
calculation of the IIAG. Head of State and REC memberships
are correct at time of publication.
