| Summary: | The aim of the study is to identify and analyze the most competitive
countries in the world in terms of development of their infrastructure in
general and its individual components. The article considers the significance
and role of infrastructure in ensuring the economic growth of developing
countries and their competitiveness, solving global problems of humanity
(including poverty), improving the quality of life of the population. The
analysis of the infrastructure state and features of its development in the
world and Ukraine has been carried out. Based on the analysis of the global
competitiveness ranking of WEF, the most competitive countries of the
world in terms of the development level of their infrastructure in general
and its individual elements have been determined. Using the calculation of
the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, a matrix of intercorrelation of
indices of world countries’ competitiveness in 2010-2015 (according to the
method of the WEF) has been composed; the most significant determinants
of the countries’ competitiveness in terms of the infrastructure development
have been identified. |
