Regional Potential Index 2015 – Economic Potential

Economic potential 2015 for the Nordic regions

Map Facts

This map shows economic potential across the Nordic Region at the regional level. Economic Potential is one of the three potentials composing Nordregio’s Regional Potential Index and includes two indicators: Gross Regional Product per capita and total R&D investments. Regions with higher economic potential scores are more likely to experience economic growth in the future. The map highlights the strong economic potential of capital city regions as well as a number of Norwegian regions. Lower levels of economic potential can be observed in peripheral regions of Finland, Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
