This statistic shows the results of the survey question: "In your country, to what extent can companies raise money by issuing shares and/or bonds on the capital market?*". Of the Benelux countries, the Netherlands has the highest score when it comes to financing through the local equity market. The Global Competitiveness Index (GCI) combines *** indicators that capture concepts that matter for productivity and long-term prosperity. These indicators are grouped into ** pillars: institutions, infrastructure, macroeconomic environment, health and primary education, higher education and training, goods market efficiency, labor market efficiency, financial market development, technological readiness, market size, business sophistication, and innovation. These pillars are in turn organized into three subindexes: basic requirements, efficiency enhancers, and innovation and sophistication factors. The three subindexes are given different weights in the calculation of the overall Index, depending on each economy’s stage of development, as proxied by its GDP per capita and the share of exports represented by raw materials.
