About World Competitiveness Online

Subject 'This database includes all the information from the IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook, the leading annual report on the competitiveness of nations, published since 1989. The statistics are updated on a regular basis, as soon as new data become available and 5 to 10 year time series are provided. The competitiveness rankings are recalculated once a year, usually by mid-May. There are 3 ways to access the information: Country Profiles, Criteria, Consolidated Rankings.' (from database homepage) NOTE: this database is NOT available off-campus via the proxy server, due to license restrictions. Note from publisher: 'For an optimal view we recommend that you use Internet Explorer allowing pop up windows and Java Script (medium level of security).'
