Scores are relative to other countries, and each sector below lists its inputs.
Mining and metals score 83 out of 100. The model's rationale: Mineral rents are 8.5% of GDP; ores and metals are 8.1% of merchandise exports (2021, 2024). The inputs are: Mineral rents (weight 40%); Ores and metals exports (weight 40%); Tracked minerals where the country produces 2 percent or more of world output (weight 20%).
Oil and gas score 76 out of 100. Its rationale: Oil rents are 0.9% of GDP; fuels are 6.5% of merchandise exports (2021, 2024). The inputs are: Oil rents (weight 35%); Fuel exports (weight 35%); Natural gas rents (weight 20%); Coal rents (weight 10%).
Industrials and manufacturing score 72 out of 100. Its rationale: Manufacturing is 20.8% of GDP; industry is 32.5% of GDP (2025). The inputs are: Manufacturing value added (weight 35%); Manufactures exports (weight 35%); Industry value added (weight 30%).
Infrastructure and logistics score 56 out of 100. Its rationale: The Logistics Performance Index is 2.6 out of 5; transport is 31.0% of service exports (2022, 2025). The inputs are: Container port traffic (weight 25%); Logistics Performance Index (1 to 5) (weight 25%, inverted); Access to electricity (weight 20%, inverted); Transport services exports (weight 15%); Urban population growth (weight 15%).

Mining scores highest. Its inputs are: Mineral rents (weight 40%); Ores and metals exports (weight 40%); Tracked minerals where the country produces 2 percent or more of world output (weight 20%). The rationale cites mineral rents and ores and metals exports as shares of GDP and of merchandise exports. A high score means mining is large and relevant relative to other countries. The model itself states: "The score describes how large and relevant a sector is in a country's economy and opportunity set, relative to other countries. It is not a measure of attractiveness, return or risk, and it is not investment advice."
For oil and gas, the rationale cites oil rents as a share of GDP and fuels as a share of merchandise exports, and the inputs also include natural gas and coal rents. Industrials and manufacturing rest on manufacturing value added, manufactures exports and industry value added. Infrastructure scores lowest of the four, and its rationale cites the Logistics Performance Index and the transport share of service exports.
The IMF World Economic Outlook database is the source for the debt figure, and the World Bank World Development Indicators supply reserves, the current account and FDI inflows. The two sources have different as-of dates in the Invest Global dataset, and the sources list at the end of the article shows each one. Debt of 28.6% of GDP is a ratio to output.
The current account balance of -3.9% of GDP for 2025 is reported next to reserves of $66.0 billion.

Real GDP growth was 7.7% for 2025 on the World Bank series, with output of $147 billion.
Reserves of $66.0 billion equal 13.6 months of imports for 2025 on the World Bank series.
The IMF World Economic Outlook series shows general government gross debt of 28.6% of GDP for 2025. The dataset carries no revenue or interest series, so it says nothing about servicing costs.
Mining and metals lead at 83 out of 100, ahead of oil and gas at 76 out of 100. The rationale cites mineral rents and export shares.
