Using a standard survey in countries worldwide, the ICA enables comparisons of investment climate conditions across countries globally The World Bank has conducted ICAs in 110 countries– including in other large, fast growing economies such as Brazil, China; India and Chile. While the responses of individual firms are kept confidential, the aggregate results are shared widely with all interested parties, available on line at The analysis of the survey results is complemented by expert assessment in key areas of the investment climate.
