Whythawk Bue Emerging Market Abstracts offer rapid, high-level comparative emerging market overviews. Each is designed to be read in no more than 20 minutes and in combination with our other abstracts. To assist comparisons, data covers a constant period, with the content bringing events up to date.

The Bue data analysis system - used in the abstracts - allows rapid, consistent and objective comparison of specific countries or regions against a chosen benchmark, using an expansive set of data from trusted sources. Country criteria selected from the UN, IMF, World Bank and WHO (amongst others) are benchmarked against those of a basket of competitive emerging nations.

The Bue scores are based on a rate of change in the criteria considered in each segment; it is not a measure of the absolute number of that particular factor. In this way, the Bue scores are able to allow comparison between highly diverse and very different countries.

Benchmark:

Brazil, Chile, China, India, Indonesia, Poland, Russian Federation, Turkey and Vietnam

Data used for the Bue Curve is arranged into six segments:

  1. Demography: Population, Health and Education
  2. Economy: Market Opportunity and Investment Environment
  3. Infrastructure: Telecommunications, Energy, Access and Rights
  4. State: Governance, Law and Stability
  5. Structure: Aid, Enterprise and State Expenditure
  6. Healthcare: Morbidity, Mortality & Treatment
