The ninth edition of the Global Talent Competitiveness Index (GTCI), titled “The Tectonics of Talent: Is the World Drifting Towards More Talent Inequalities?”, measures how countries and cities grow, attract and retain talent, against the background of many changes that could deeply affect the global talent scene.

Written by Insead, Human Capital Leadership Institute and Portulans Institute, the report provides a unique resource for decision makers to understand the global talent competitiveness picture and develop strategies to boost their economies. The 2022 edition includes 133 countries in the GCTI, while coverage in the city index includes 175 cities.

Singapore retains its position as the second-most talent-competitive country in the world. The city-state is also ranked as a global leader in Global Knowledge Skills, where it ranks at the top in both sub-pillars: High-Level Skills and Talent Impact.
