Why this moved — Index v1.0 → v1.1
Score changed from 97.4 (v1.0) to 97.7 (v1.1) when the Index expanded on 21 Oct 2026. Decomposed honestly:
- Methodology effect +0.3 — 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 Hong Kong SAR, China.
- Data effect +0.0 — revised or newer values on the original v1.0 indicators. This is the part that reflects change in Hong Kong SAR, China itself.
The v1.0 table is kept in the v1.0 archive.
