DREM updates the Regional Development Composite Index (RDCI) for the 2011-2014 period
The RDCI results for 2014 released today by Statistics Portugal (INE) show that the metropolitan area of Lisbon remains as the only region above the country’s average regarding the overall index, with this indicator reaching 106.83 (106.85 in 2013). In the Autonomous Region of Madeira the index stood at 93.07 in 2014, dropping slightly from 2013 (93.72).
The competitiveness index was also higher in the metropolitan area of Lisbon (114.16), again the only region above the country’s average. The Autonomous Regions of the Azores and Madeira show the worse results, with Madeira scoring a value of 86.84 in 2014 (85.97 in 2013).
The values of the cohesion index are more balanced at least for mainland Portugal. The Autonomous Region of the Azores has the lowest cohesion index (77.65), while Madeira scored 84.61 in this indicator, halting the growing trend of the three prior years (2011-2013).
The Autonomous Region of Madeira was the leading region in the environmental quality index in the year 2014 (108.77). Three regions of the mainland (Centro, the Algarve and the metropolitan area of Lisbon) have an index below 100.
