Doing Business Introduction

Economy rankings

Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business, from 1–190. A high ease of doing business ranking means the regulator environment is more conducive to the starting and operation of a local firm. The rankings are determined by sorting the aggregate scores on 10 topics, each consisting of several indicators, giving equal weight to each topic. The rankings for all economies are benchmarked to May 2019.
