The United Kingdom was ranked at number 3 and at first glance when compared to the two countries Russia and the USA, it seems very small in terms of investment opportunities.

China is also regarded as a sound area to invest in as it has strong political economical factors making it even more attractive for investors. In fact, in China over the past 5 years there has been a staggering amount of economic growth, according to the study. Similarly Poland is also in a strong

position and this is due in part to its accession into the EU. It is factors like this that make all the difference to the ranking that a country receives. As shown in many cases it is not the size of the country that adds to its attractiveness, but more the country’s infrastructure and governance that can boost its ranking on the index.
The Future for the Private Equity Attractiveness Index
As more countries continue to develop and more information is collated the Private Equity Attractiveness Index looks set to go from strength to strength. It can offer investors a way to investigate a country’s potential return on investment and risk factors, prior to investing in them, which could potentially save some investors millions of dollars. With such a valuable wealth of information so readily available such indexes will prove to be invaluable to investors for years to come.
