Bertelsmann Transformation Index > Management Index 2006	6.88	[12th of 118]
Bertelsmann Transformation Index > Status Index 2006	8.71	[11th of 119]
DEFINITION: The Status Index’s overall result represents the mean value of the scores for the dimensions “Political Transformation�? and “Economic Transformation�?. The mean value was calculated using the exact, unrounded values for both these dimensions, which, in turn, were derived from the ratings for the five political criteria (based on 18 indicators) and the seven economic criteria (based on 14 indicators). The table shows rounded scores for political and economic transformation as well as for the Status Index’s overall result. In some cases, therefore, the overall result differs slightly from the mean value.
