|
| Switzerland tops the ranking in The Global Competitiveness Report 2016-2017 for the eighth consecutive year. Singapore takes second place behind Switzerland for the sixth year in a row. The US is in 3rd, a position it has occupied since the 2014-2015 report. The rest of the top 10 is dominated by European economies, with Japan and Hong Kong also featuring in 8th and 9th respectively. |
|
| The rankings are calculated from both publicly available data and the Executive Opinion Survey, a comprehensive annual survey conducted by the World Economic Forum together with its network of Partner Institutes (leading research institutes and business organizations) in the countries covered by the Report. |
