The report ranked the Qatari government as the most efficient, followed by Singapore in second place and Finland in third.<\/p>\n

Other governments that made it to the top 10 are Hong Kong (fourth); the United Arab Emirates (fifth) and New Zealand (sixth).<\/p>\n

The WEF evaluates the efficiency and competitiveness landscape of 144 of the world\u2019s governments based on, among others, the wastefulness of government spending, burden of regulation and transparency of policy-making, to produce an overall global ranking.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe efficiency of government has a significant bearing on a country\u2019s competitiveness and economic growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cExcessive bureaucracy and regulation, a lack of transparency, and inadequate legal frameworks all impose additional costs on business and impede expansion,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n

The report ranked Venezuela as the least efficient government globally, below Italy, Argentina, Lebanon, Libya and Croatia.<\/p>\n

The other countries ranked in the top 10 least efficient governments are Angola (seventh least efficient), Chad (eighth), Mauritania (ninth) and Serbia (10th).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
