The Henley & Partners - Kochenov Quality of Nationality Index

The Henley & Partners – Kochenov Quality of Nationality Index (QNI) ranks the objective value of world nationalities as legal statuses of attachment to states. It looks at two groups of factors: internal (scale of the economy, human development, and peace and stability) and external (visa-free travel and the ability to settle and work abroad, weighing the quality and also the diversity of destinations).
