Say Goodbye to Globalization as the World has been disordered in 2020
One of the key characteristics of the new era will be the reversal of unfettered globalization, as a team of analysts predicted. While they believe "the best combined asset price growth of any era in history, with equity and bond returns very strong across the board" since 1980, the "Age of Disorder" is likely to break this trend.
The deteriorating of U.S.-China relations is another theme (out of eight) that will define the next distinct era of modern times, "which is hastened, but not caused by, the pandemic." The analysts note that the Chinese economy will be closing the gap with the U.S. and could finally outperform it by the end of the decade.
"A clash of cultures and interests therefore beckons, especially as China grows closer to being the largest economy in the world," the report says.

Which countries have the best education system in the world in 2020 ?
In
order to determine the rankings; researchers have analyzed and compared
195 countries across two key categories of
quality (like public education system, willingness to attend university,
number of research institutions,
university funding and endowment, specialization expertise, industrial
linkage, academic educational professionals effectiveness, institutional
output by research, higher education
institutions perform in the various global rankings) and opportunity
(like adult literacy rates, graduation rates, primary school completion
rate, secondary school completion rate, high school completion rate,
collegiate-level school completion rate, government expenditure on
education in total % of GDP).
To evaluate those dimensions, researchers looked at 16 indicators that
fell into one of the three categories. Each attribute was graded on a
100-point scale.
Nelson Mandela said: "Edcuation is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

How is a nation’s ease of doing business measured?
Each year the World Bank publishes
"Doing Business Index", an index measuring the ease of doing business in a given country.
The higher a country’s Doing Business Index, the friendlier or easier its regulatory environment for doing business.
The measurement is based on the following ten factors like
starting a business,
dealing with construction permits,
getting electricity,
registering property,
getting credit,
protecting investors,
paying taxes,
cross-border trade,
enforcing contracts and
resolving insolvency.
