The 2012Index of Economic Freedom relies on data from multiple sources to provide a picture

of economic freedom in each country that is as comprehensive, impartial, and accurate as pos-

sible. The following sources provided the primary information for analyzing and scoring the 10

components of economic freedom. In addition, the authors and analysts used supporting documen-

tation and information from various government agencies and sites on the Internet, news reports

and journal articles, and official responses to inquiries. All statistical and other information received

from government sources was verified with independent, internationally recognized sources.
