Hong Kong and Singapore take the lead over the whole planet

As it was twenty years ago Hong Kong has taken the first place at rating of The Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom, which determines the most natural and free economics of the world.

Hong Kong has shown leading indices in such categories as freedom of business doing, free trade and financial trade. This jurisdiction has become the second in the category of investment freedom. Researches discovered that tax and labour control has been improved in Hong Kong.

The Heritage Foundation distinguished Hong Kong as effective and clear jurisdiction, which is the most convenient platform for companies working with China.

Below Hong Kong, which has acquired 89,6 points from 100, there are Singapore (89,4), New Zealand (82,1), Australia (81,5) and Switzerland (80,5). Average rating of economic freedom for reference equals to 60,4 points.

USA’s result is 76.2 points, which is higher than the result of Great Britain (75.8), but lower than the result f Canada (79.1).
