Armenia ranks 97th out of 133 countries according to the Global Competitiveness Report 2009-10, registering no change compared to the 2008 ranking. At the same time, the score of Armenia's overall competitiveness deteriorated slightly, driven by the country's re-classification into a new development stage and resulting in changes in the weights of different competitiveness factors. There has been a considerable improvement in infrastructure and the macroeconomic environment. Goods market efficiency and innovation capacity deteriorated slightly. Higher education and training, as well as labor market efficiency improved by absolute scores but lost 2 points in ranking. This provides evidence for the comparative efficiency of other countries in improving their performance in these areas.
The Global Competitiveness Report’s competitiveness ranking is based on the Global Competitiveness Index (GCI), developed for the World Economic Forum (WEF). The GCI is based on 12 pillars of competitiveness and provides a comprehensive assessment of country competitiveness.
The Global Competitiveness Report 2009-10 profiles 133 economies worldwide. Switzerland leads the rankings. The United States falls to second place, with weaker financial markets and less macroeconomic stability. Singapore, Sweden and Denmark are also included in the list of top five countries. In the CIS the only positive change in competitiveness performance was observed in Azerbaijan. On the contrary, competitiveness rankings dropped considerably in Russia and Ukraine.
In the context of competitiveness, Armenia has moved toward a new development stage, where the role of the competitiveness drivers is changed. Currently, economic efficiency and innovation capacities assume a growing importance for Armenia.
Armenia’s competitive advantages are the low level of government debt, labor market regulations, agricultural policy costs, as well as the low level of business costs of crime and violence. The major disadvantages are the extent of market dominance and insufficient level of competition, which indicate the inefficiency of competition policy. Compared to the previous study, the list of major disadvantages also included the burden of customs procedures, government procurement of advanced technological products, the quality of management schools, the degree of customer orientation, and the willingness of shareholders to delegate authority. 04 Sep 2009
