Signal Five of six beat peers on Business Constraints while the same five lag on Recovery and Resolution

Summary

This signal shows that the group's middling Business Perception score hides two opposite results. Business Perception is split into Business Constraints and Recovery and Resolution Process. Five of the six growth markets perform better than peer developing economies on Business Constraints. Malaysia leads that measure at 2.2 standard deviations above the developing-economy average. Yet the same five countries tend to trail their peers on Recovery and Resolution Process, suggesting that day-to-day operating conditions are relatively favourable while procedures for handling distress and settling disputes are weaker.
