This chart shows The Legatum Prosperity Index by Country.

The Legatum Prosperity Index is based on 89 different variables analysed across 142 nations around the world. Source data includes Gallup World Poll, World Development Indicators, International Telecommunication Union, Fragile States Index, Worldwide Governance Indicators, Freedom House, World Health Organisation, World Values Survey, Amnesty International, Centre for Systemic Peace. The 89 variables are grouped into 8 sub-indexes, which are averaged using equal weights.

The 8 sub-indexes are:

1.Economy

2.Entrepreneurship & Opportunity

3.Governance

4.Education

5.Health

6.Safety & Security

7.Personal Freedom

8.Social Capital

For example, Personal Freedom includes freedom of speech and religion, national tolerance for immigrants and ethnic and racial minorities. The Social Capital sub-index includes the percentage of citizens who volunteer, give to charity, help strangers, and who feel they can rely on family and friends.

The Legatum Institute operates a transparent approach to its work on the Prosperity Index.
