Regulatory Quality: Number of Sources

This indicator reflects the breadth and reliability of the data underpinning assessments of governmental effectiveness in crafting and enforcing policies that foster private sector growth. By measuring the number of distinct data sources used to inform the overall evaluation, it provides insight into the robustness of the findings. A higher count suggests a more comprehensive perspective, drawing from diverse inputs such as expert surveys, economic analyses, and case studies, which enhances the validity of the conclusions drawn. This diversity not only enriches the quality of the assessment but also helps mitigate biases, ensuring that regulatory capacities are evaluated through a multi-faceted lens, ultimately benefiting stakeholders by yielding a more nuanced understanding of the regulatory environment.
