Overall and Breakdown Digital Rankings

The IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking

The IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking presents the 2022 overall rankings for the 63 economies covered by the WCY. The rankings are calculated on the basis of the 54 ranked criteria: 34 Hard and 20 Survey data. The countries are ranked from the most to the least digital competitive. The final column shows the improvement or decline from the previous year. The index value or “score” is also indicated for each country.

Selected breakdowns of the IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking

In addition to global digital rankings, other rankings are provided to show comparisons based on different perspectives. These digital rankings include countries split by population size (populations above and below 20 million), by GDP per capita to reflect different peer groups (above and below $20,000) and three regional rankings drawn from different geographical areas (Europe-Middle East-Africa, Asia-Pacific and the Americas).

Digital Competitiveness Factor Rankings

The global rankings for each of the Digital Competitiveness Factors are then shown as individual ranking tables. Again, the economies are ranked from the most to the least digital competitive and the previous year’s rankings (2021) are shown in brackets. Similar to the Overall Digital Ranking, the values or “scores” are indicated for each Factor. However, there is only one economy that has a score of 100 and one economy with a score of 0 across all four Factors.
