总部位于瑞士日内瓦的世界经济论坛9月3日发布2014年至2015年度的《全球竞争力报告》。在这份覆盖全球144个经济体的报告中,瑞士连续6年独占鳌头,新加坡和美国紧随其后。位列4至10位的经济体分别为芬兰、德国、日本、中国香港、荷兰、英国和瑞典。受埃博拉疫情的严重影响,非洲国家几内亚今年垫底。中国的排名则上升一位至第28位。
《全球竞争力报告》排名是以“全球竞争力指数”为基础,涵盖被考量经济体的宏观经济稳定性、基础设施建设、医疗水平、教育情况、商品和劳动市场效率、金融市场成熟性等。
在这份报告中,排名前10位的国家较之往年变化不大。瑞士以高效、创新以及宏观经济稳定性等方面的突出优势拔得头筹。但路透社指出,瑞士的劳动市场今年遇到困难,企业单位和研究机构难以招聘到合格人才,这已威胁到该国的创新能力优势。
该报告分析称,中国在“金砖五国”中继续保持领先,在政府效率、高等教育和培训、企业成熟度、市场功能、创新等多个方面均有所改善。此外,中国的宏观经济环境较为稳定,通货膨胀率被有效控制。中国已不再是一个以劳动密集型企业为主的“廉价劳工原产地”,有必要创造更多高价值的工作岗位。
世界经济论坛创始人克劳斯·施瓦布提醒称,各国政府为追求经济增长而改革的举动使全球经济的健康发展面临威胁,他呼吁各国注重结构性改革,以确保经济能通过一种可持续且包容性更强的方式增长。(更多精彩资讯请点击中国进出口网)
