Our new report, Global Flows in a Digital Age: How Trade, Finance, People, and Data Connect the World Economy, features an index of "connectedness" that measures cross-border flows of goods, services, finance, people, and data and communications. In addition to allowing country-by-country comparisons, it includes regional rankings. The MENA average ranks 47th in the world, making it the second-worst-performing region; only Sub-Saharan Africa is less connected, write James Manyika and Susan Lund in The Cairo Review of Global Affairs.
