Whythawk Bue Emerging Market Abstracts offer rapid, high-level comparative emerging market overviews. Each is designed to be read in no more than 20 minutes and in combination with our other abstracts. To assist comparisons, data covers a constant period, with the content bringing events up to date.
The Bue data analysis system - used in the abstracts - allows rapid, consistent and objective comparison of specific countries or regions against a chosen benchmark, using an expansive set of data from trusted sources. Country criteria selected from the UN, IMF, World Bank and WHO (amongst others) are benchmarked against those of a basket of competitive emerging nations.
The Bue scores are based on a rate of change in the criteria considered in each segment; it is not a measure of the absolute number of that particular factor. In this way, the Bue scores are able to allow comparison between highly diverse and very different countries.
