Requires Attention

The country rankings table below summarizes the future readiness positions of the 124 countries in the FREI 2022 Report. It lists countries in order of decreasing overall performance (column 1). Data inside the table (columns 2 to 5) refer to the scores and ranks in each of the four FREI pillars.

How to read this table: within each pillar, different shades correspond to different relative levels of performance: darker shades indicate areas in which the country considered performs relatively well, whereas the lightest shade point at areas requiring priority attention. Intermediate shading corresponds to areas for which improvement remains important.
