WEF Global Competitiveness Report
The WEF's annual competitiveness rankings have aged like fine wine. The once-humble set of sub-rankings and components is now a great resource for country risk analysis -- especially for evaluating the business environment. Unfortunately, for a club of rich guys, the WEF is ultra-stingy, apparently preferring to up their caviar budget for the annual Davos soirre rather than give back to the people. Still, the website does display the overall index.
KEYWORDS: economic competitiveness, risk for creditors, regulatory quality, economic openness, economic stability
