Explanation

Context-India ranks 59 on International institute of management development (IMD) World Talent Ranking Report; Switzerland first.

Key points

The report is based on three key indicators/Factors

• The Investment & Development factor measures the resources committed to cultivate home grown human capital.

• The Appeal factor evaluates the extent to which a country attracts local and foreign talent.

• Finally, the Readiness factor quantifies the quality of the skills and competencies that are available in a country. 

India's performance

• India has slipped 6 places to 59 rank on a global annual list of 63 countries.
• Among BRICS nations ,India is also lagging behind fellow BRICs countries - China ranked 42nd on the list, Russia (47th) and South Africa (50th), Brazil (61)

Reason for low performance of india

• India’s drop is largely the result of its performance in the Appeal factor.
• In the measure of pollution (exposure to particle pollution) India ranks 61st.
• The quality of life remains low at 51st, while the negative impact of brain drain in the economy remains at 31st and prioritization of attracting and retaining talents drops to 41st.
• Worker motivation slightly drops to 35th and so does the attractiveness of the country for foreign highly-skilled personnel (40th).
• India ranks 62nd in total public expenditure on education per student and measures of the quality of education (pupil-teacher ratio in primary and in secondary education).
• There are other issues that have an equally important impact than GDP growth, such as the effectiveness of the health system and women's participation in the labour force"
