Global Freight Resilience Index© 2020 ranking

GFRI

The Global Freight Resilience Index© (GFRI) was launched in January 2020 in Davos alongside the World Economic Forum annual meeting. The Index comprises three sub-pillars: Policy Opportunity, Freight Performance and Urgency to Act. It takes into consideration indicators at the country-level:

  • The policy opportunity pillar analyses a country’s current trajectory and potential for further improving its macro-environmental factors, specifically, institutional, economic, social, and technological factors. Indicators in this pillar evaluate a government’s conduciveness to trade by assessing its overall economic resilience.
  • The freight performance pillar analyses a country’s relative performance in trade, freight and logistics. Indicators in this pillar evaluate the level of service and the relative success in trade and logistics performance.
  • The urgency to act pillar provides a measure of the magnitude of misalignment between a country’s policy opportunity and freight performance indicators and thus, the degree of criticality to take actions.

Countries with high freight resilience have macro-economic environments that effectively leverage their logistics infrastructure to create global trade opportunities. They convert these opportunities into tangible results by providing advantages in cost, time and service delivery. A resilient freight market is defined as one having the ability to sustain trade flows for a wide range of markets. Resilient freight markets can withstand external shocks because of their flexibility and adaptability.
