Belgium leaves the Netherlands ahead on globalisation index

The ‘DHL Global Connectedness Index‘ measures the extent to which the world is interconnected. Parameters are the cross-border flows of trade, capital, information and people. In each case, it looks at how local or international the activities resulting from the four pillars are, as well as the average distance the flows travel. For the country analyses, a country’s international flows were compared with the global distribution of the same flows in the other direction.
