Poland comes 36th in Legatum Prosperity Index 2019

According to this year’s Legatum Institute’s Legatum Prosperity Index that measures the level of wealth, Poland ranks 36th among 167 countries. The relatively low position – between Latvia and Chile – mainly results from low ratings in the Social Capital category, which includes strong social norms, personal ties, support networks and residents’ participation in social life. Poland is in 111th place in this category. However, the country performed well in the Security category (22nd place), which includes personal and national security.
 
The highest places in the ranking fell to Denmark, Norway, and Switzerland. Sweden, Fin-land, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Germany, Luxembourg, and Iceland are also among the top ten countries in the ranking. The poorest countries are the Central African Republic, Yemen, and South Sudan.
