Why this moved — Index v1.0 → v1.1
Score changed from 61.4 (v1.0) to 63.7 (v1.1) when the Index expanded on 21 Oct 2026. Decomposed honestly:
- Methodology effect +2.4 — the indicator set grew from 9 to 16 (adding Protection and Environment & Exposure). This part of the change says something about the ruler, not about Equatorial Guinea.
- Data effect +0.0 — revised or newer values on the original v1.0 indicators. This is the part that reflects change in Equatorial Guinea itself.
It also entered the ranked table at #148, having previously been provisional. The v1.0 table is kept in the v1.0 archive.
