Note: The rankings are benchmarked to May 1, 2019, and based on the average of each economy’s ease of doing business scores for the 10 topics included in the aggregate ranking. For the economies for which the data cover two cities, scores are a population-weighted average for the two cities.

Rankings are calculated on the basis of the unrounded scores, while scores with only one digit are displayed in the table.
