“The top three countries were followed by Kuwait with a score of 7.8, Lebanon (7.7), Oman and Qatar posted the same score of (7.6), and Saudi Arabia (7.4).
The Economic Freedom of the Arab World report compares and ranks Arab nations in five areas of economic freedom: Size of government, including expenditures, taxes and enterprises; commercial and economic law and security of property rights; access to sound money; freedom to trade internationally; and regulation of credit, labour, and business.
Research shows that individuals living in countries with high levels of economic freedom enjoy higher levels of prosperity, greater individual freedoms and longer life spans, said the report.
Authors of the report said that denial of economic freedom helped spark the “Arab Spring”, adding that this report provides a timely reminder of the importance of real reform to increase economic freedom and prosperity throughout the region.”
