Research: Georgia's Economic Freedom Index Worsened
According to the annual publication by the Heritage Foundation/Wall
Street Journal - Index of Economic Freedom-2005, Georgia's overall
score has worsened by 0,15 points since last year reaching 3.34
points, as a result the country still remains in the `mostly unfree'
category.
The 2005 Index of Economic Freedom measures 161 countries. Low scores
are more desirable. The higher scores indicate on greater level of
government interference in the economy and the less economic freedom
a country enjoys.
Armenia is the only country from the Commonwealth of Independent
States (CIS) which is in the `mostly free' category with 2,58 points.
