The Netherlands tops the list, followed by Ireland and Belgium. Switzerland is in fifth place.

The world’s major economies are more inward – looking and tend to occupy lower ranks on the index list. The US, the world’s largest economy, ranks 27th, while China is 71st, Japan 39th, and Germany 16th.
