Rule of Law (World Bank score, 0–100)

Rule of Law, one of the six Worldwide Governance Indicators, as a score from 0 to 100 (higher is a better standing among the countries covered). It is a composite of perceptions drawn from 35 cross-country sources (household surveys, firm surveys and expert assessments), not a count of anything, and the World Bank treats it as an estimate rather than a definitive rating.

What it covers: The whole country. Scores move with the sources behind them and public perceptions can lag behind reforms; the World Bank intends them for research, policy analysis and reflection, not for credit or investment decisions.
