13. There is a powerful connection between social and economic development
Think of these together
Causality go in both directions
- But efforts to measure both of these together make it hard to separate which causes what
- Understanding the relationship between these two areas is on the frontier of our thinking 13

31. Performance relative to economic peers

32. DEFINING PEER COUNTRIES
We define a country’s economic peers as the 15 countries closest in GDP PPP per capita.
Once the peer group is defined, a country’s performance is compared to the median performance of countries within the peer cohort.
If a country’s indicator score is greater than (or less than) the average absolute deviation from the median of the comparator group, it is considered a strength (or weakness). Scores within one average absolute deviation are considered neither strengths nor weaknesses (neutral) within the cohort.

33. Under-performing
Lower than neutral
Neutral
Higher than neutral
Over-performing
Strengths and weaknesses are relative to 15 countries of similar GDP per capita: Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Ireland, Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Australia, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Belgium, Iceland, Finland, Norway
