What's inside?
Measuring human capital reveals which countries support economic success and which need improvement.
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.
