One score per economy measures the efficiency of enforcing contracts through a local court. The score is a simple average of component indicators for procedures, time, and cost. It is computed by the World Bank's Doing Business project using the DB04-15 methodology.
Use Cases
- Benchmarking the 'enforcing contracts' score across different economies for cross-country regulatory analysis.
- Analyzing correlations between the composite score and its underlying component indicators for procedures, time, and cost.
- Modeling trends in contract enforcement efficiency over time using the DB04-15 methodology scores.
- Assessing the impact of judicial reforms by tracking changes in the enforcement score and its constituent metrics.
Strengths
- Standardized score computed via a consistent DB04-15 methodology, enabling cross-economy comparison.
- Composite metric integrates three specific component indicators: procedures, time, and cost.
Limitations
- Specific row count, time range, and geographic coverage are unknown.
- Underlying raw data for the component indicators is not provided, only the final composite score.
