Assessment of Global Competitiveness Performance of G20 Countries with Two-Stage Analytical Method

Year 2024, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 50 - 60, 20.12.2024

Abstract

With globalization, the structure of competition conditions has changed considerably, and countries have had to maintain their leadership in different areas in order to stand out. Objective assessment tools are needed for countries to better assess and evaluate their position relative to each other in the face of fierce competitiveness. International competitiveness indices are important measures that help to achieve strategic objectives more effectively.
In this study, the Global Sustainable Competitiveness Index (GCI) performances of G20 countries, including Turkey, are evaluated using a practical two-stage entropy-based Simple additive weighting (SAW) method to obtain a consistent result. Firstly, the criteria were weighted using the entropy method and then the countries were ranked by descending order of GCI scores using the SAW method. The most influential indices on sustainable competitiveness performance are resource intensity index, intellectual capital and social capital, while governance index has the lowest impact. The United Kingdom, Japan and Germany had the best sustainable competitiveness performance among G20 countries. Saudi Arabia ranked last among G20 countries, while Turkey ranked 14th.

G20 Ülkelerinin Küresel Rekabet Performansının İki Aşamalı Analitik Yöntemle Değerlendirilmesi

Year 2024, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 50 - 60, 20.12.2024

Abstract

Küreselleşmeyle birlikte rekabet koşullarının yapısı önemli ölçüde değişmiş ve ülkeler öne çıkmak için farklı alanlarda liderliklerini sürdürmek zorunda kalmışlardır. Ülkelerin, şiddetli rekabet karşısında birbirlerine göre konumlarını daha iyi görüp değerlendirebilmeleri için nesnel değerlendirme araçlarına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Uluslararası rekabet endeksleri, stratejik hedeflere daha etkili bir şekilde ulaşmaya yardımcı olan önemli ölçütlerdir.
Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'nin de aralarında bulunduğu G20 ülkelerinin Küresel Sürdürülebilir Rekabet Endeksi (GCI) performansları, tutarlı bir sonuç elde etmek için pratik iki aşamalı entropi tabanlı Basit toplamlı ağırlıklandırma (SAW) yöntemi kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Öncelikle kriterler entropi yöntemi kullanılarak ağırlıklandırılmış ve ardından ülkeler GCI puanlarına göre SAW yöntemi kullanılarak azalan sıraya göre sıralanmıştır. Sürdürülebilir rekabet performansı üzerinde en etkili endeksler kaynak yoğunluğu endeksi, entelektüel sermaye ve sosyal sermaye iken, yönetişim endeksi en düşük etkiye sahiptir. G20 ülkeleri arasında Birleşik Krallık, Japonya ve Almanya en iyi sürdürülebilir rekabet performansına sahip olmuştur. Suudi Arabistan G20 ülkeleri arasında sonuncu sırada yer alırken, Türkiye 14. sırada yer almıştır.
