Firm Level Datasets of the IC

Investment Climate Research Program

This unique resource, a result of exemplary collaboration across Regions and Networks, allows Bank staff and ultimately outside researchers and policymakers access to valuable  measures of investment climate conditions. This website enables  policy analysts and researchers to learn what matters most for firms across a wide range of countries.  Is it the regulatory environment?  Or infrastructure?  Or corruption?  How do IC constraints affect firm performance - from investment to job creation and productivity? The data show big differences among countries in what matters most.
