A Guide for Multinationals Navigating Expansion and Contraction
The GMCI was created using a machine learning clustering algorithm to group together countries with similar complexity profiles. The interactive chart below plots 100 countries in three-dimensional space based on their market, operational, and regulatory complexity. Colors represent the eight GMCI groups. Hover over points to identify the country and use the toolbar to rotate, pan, or zoom in and out.
The Wall Street Journal describes the GMCI as an "...index [that] helps identify which countries have similar operating environments so investors—both corporate and financial—can make more-informed decisions on which countries they will be comfortable or capable of operating in.” Quartz frames the GMCI as a new tool to tackle complexity and CFO Magazine and CEOWorld Magazine also featured articles exploring the GMCI's impact.
