Performance relative to economic peers

DEFINING PEER COUNTRIES We define a country’s economic peers as the 15 countries closest in GDP PPP per capita. Once the peer group is defined, a country’s performance is compared to the median performance of countries within the peer cohort. If a country’s indicator score is greater than (or less than) the average absolute deviation from the median of the comparator group, it is considered a strength (or weakness). Scores within one average absolute deviation are considered neither strengths nor weaknesses (neutral) within the cohort.

Under-performing Lower than neutral Neutral Higher than neutral Over-performing Strengths and weaknesses are relative to 15 countries of similar GDP per capita: Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Ireland, Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Australia, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Belgium, Iceland, Finland, Norway
