Key Quotes

“In south-east Asia, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia all improved their rankings. This is particularly significant for Thailand who fell from 31^st place in 2014 to 48^th in 2017 but now sits in 26^th place – ahead of Spain, France and Japan. Another exceptional result was India, which jumped to 100^th place from 130th in 2017 (revised down to 123^rd). While the ranking results are important in their own right, what really is significant is how these countries improved their Ease of Doing Business ranking.”
