UK-based FM Economic and Financial Solutions, which specializes in economic and financial risk analysis, has just published its annual Global Economic Resilience Index 2025.
The Index measures countries’ ability to manage crises, overcome economic shocks and strengthen their business environments. It assesses both exposure to risk and the capacity of institutions to respond effectively.
According to this ranking, Tunisia ranks 75ᵉ out of more than 130 countries worldwide, with an overall score of 54.2 points.
The details reveal very contrasting indicators. The country is highly exposed to climate risks, with a score of 91, and to those related to climate change (93.8; 24ᵉ world rank). On the other hand, the quality of management of these risks remains low, with a score of 22.7 (71ᵉ world rank).
On the economic front, inflation remains one of the black spots in the ranking, with a score of 98.8 (110ᵉ world rank). As for the fight against corruption, Tunisia scores 33.2 points (77ᵉ world rank).
On the Maghreb scale, Tunisia ranks 3ᵉ, behind Morocco, which leads the region (70ᵉ world, 56.1 points), and Egypt with a score of 55.2 (74ᵉ). Algeria ranks 91st with a score of 47.7, while Mauritania and Libya are not included in the ranking.
At global level, Denmark dominates the ranking, taking first place with a perfect score of 100 points, followed by Luxembourg (99.5 points) and the United Kingdom, which completes the podium. Chad, on the other hand, comes 130th with a score of zero.
In the Arab world, Qatar tops the rankings with over 76 points at 37th worldwide. It is followed by the United Arab Emirates (43rd globally, 73.6 points) and Saudi Arabia (48th), while Bahrain and Oman rank 54th and 56th respectively.
The report points out that nearly 50 countries now manage to recover from financial crises 30% faster than the global average.
The index is based on a number of factors and sub-indicators covering the political, economic and social spheres.
It takes into account, among other things, levels of education, health spending, inflation rates, the quality of logistics infrastructure, urban expansion, water stress and other criteria related to the ability to adapt and manage crises.
