[...] The majority of SIDS (54 per cent) are in the high EGDI group, followed by 38 per cent in the middle group, 5 per cent in the very high group, and 3 per cent in the low group. [...] Notable changes include Mauritius moving from the high to the very high EGDI group, Vanuatu advancing from the middle to the high EGDI group, and Belize dropping from the high to the middle EGDI level. [...] The list of LDCs and SIDSs have changed since 2022 with the graduation of Bhutan from the LDC category and the graduation of Bahrain from the SIDS category; the slight changes in the number of countries assessed and the necessary recalculations have resulted in small variations between the numbers reported here and those reported in the previous Survey. [...] All of the LDCs in the high EGDI group, with the exception of Rwanda, Bhutan and Bangladesh, have OSI values in the middle range (0.3259 to 0.4958); however, their TII values have risen significantly, unlocking the potential for more rapid advancement in digitalization (and higher EGDI values) in the future.
