Recommendation

Most analysts frame a nation’s progress in terms of GDP or overall debt. But people are at the heart of every country, and from the poorest to the wealthiest nation, human capital is the true driver of a country’s economic standing in the world. This World Economic Forum report provides an interesting glimpse at education, health and other aspects of human capital on a country-by-country basis. It identifies the nations and regions that are moving forward in the race to advance their human capital and those that are falling behind. getAbstract recommends this analysis to anyone interested in an alternative approach to evaluating the global economic landscape.

Take-Aways

  • A country’s human capital – its people’s skills, abilities and well-being – is an often-overlooked yet critical component of its long-term economic success.
  • Four categories – “education, health and wellness, workforce and employment, and enabling environment” – indicate a country’s relative standing in human capital.
  • Eight of the top 10 countries in the Human Capital Index hail from Europe. Switzerland ranks highest globally, and Finland lies in second position.
