"The Nordic region is prosperous – all Nordic countries have higher levels of prosperity than the average OECD-country. Only the United States and Ireland have a higher GDP per capita than the Nordic countries. However, even though we are successful now one important question remains: how can the Nordic countries also in the future continue to be competitive on a global scale?
The first Nordic Globalization Barometer identifies central issues related to the dynamics of globalization and evaluates the position of the Nordic countries in the global economy in three main categories: Economic performance, competitiveness, and globalization readiness. Its aim is to spur and inspire a fruitful discussion on how our region can be further strengthened."
