Classifying Countries

  • The World Bank categorises countries based on their development levels, considering economic, social, cultural, and technological aspects

  • The three main categories are:

    • Low-income countries (LICs) have a Gross National Income (GNI) per capita of US$1 086 or less (e.g. Mozambique, Bangladesh, Haiti, Afghanistan)

    • Middle-income countries (MICs) have a GNI per capita over US$1 086 but less than US$13 205 (e.g. Mexico, Philippines, Brazil, Indonesia)

    • High-income countries (HICs) have a GNI per capita exceeding US$13 205 (e.g. Sweden, Australia, Canada, Singapore)

  • LICs have weaker economies, leading to instances of extreme poverty, lower education levels, and poorer living standards

    • Some additional examples of LICs include Zambia, Myanmar, Chad, Sierra Leone

  • HICs have much stronger economies, resulting in higher education levels, superior living standards, and low levels of extreme poverty

    • Some additional examples of HICs include Switzerland, Germany, Norway, Qatar

  • Factors influencing a country’s classification include climate, resource availability, frequency of natural disasters, and social aspects, such as political stability, cultural diversity and social equality
