This study submits eleven business climate indexes to tests of their ability to predict relative economic performance on either side of state borders. Our results show that most business climate indexes have no ability to predict relative economic growth regardless of how growth is measured. Some are negatively correlated with relative growth. Many are better at reporting past growth than at predicting the future. In the end, the most predictive business climate index is the Grant Thornton Index which was discontinued in 1989.

The four Asian tigers, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan (also called Four Dragons) experienced miraculous high growth rates in the pre-nineties period and rapidly transformed their economic status from less developed 'basket cases' to developed high-income countries gaining entry to the rich OECD club of countries. These countries even in the post-nineties, barring few years, have continued to grow further and are an inspiring role model for the newly emerging economies. In this study we adduce certain trends in these countries since the nineties and specifically examine role of human capital and knowledge building, productivity convergence and intra-regional trade in the Asian tigers'. We examine these in the context of India.
