Why this moved — Index v1.0 → v1.1
Score changed from 86.5 (v1.0) to 78.6 (v1.1) when the Index expanded on 21 Oct 2026. Decomposed honestly:
- Methodology effect -7.9 — 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 Turks and Caicos Islands.
- Data effect +0.0 — revised or newer values on the original v1.0 indicators. This is the part that reflects change in Turks and Caicos Islands itself.
The v1.0 table is kept in the v1.0 archive.
