The Heritage Foundation

The Heritage Foundation/Wall Street Journal’s Index of Economic Freedom is a theoretical analysis of the factors that most influence the institutional setting of economic growth. The findings of this study are straightforward: The countries with the most economic freedom also have higher rates of long-term economic growth and are more prosperous than are those with less economic freedom.

Armenia’s ranking among the 162 countries in the index, as well as the rankings of its neighbors and other ex-Soviet states are presented herein.

For comparative purposes, the countries that directly precede and follow Armenia in the Index are also presented.
