Overview

Ukraine scores 4.81 and climbs two places to rank 8th amongst the resource and efficiency-driven1 economies in the Connectivity Scorecard 2011 index. In 2010, Ukraine finished 10th with a score of 4.67. The modest improvement in Ukraine’s fortunes between this year and the previous one should not be overstated. The country has some areas of strength, particularly in the deployment of fixed telephony and literacy rates, which ensure that it is a respectable but not outstanding performer in the Connectivity Scorecard. By the same token, like many other Resource and Efficiency economies, there is a broad array of indicators on which Ukraine is not a top performer.
