Index Methodology. For three consecutive years, eligible issuer countries must have gross national income (“GNI”) below the Index Income Ceiling (“IIC”) or an Index PPP Ratio (“IPR”) below the Index Provider’s emerging market threshold. The Index Provider defines IIC as the GNI per capita level that is adjusted every year by the growth rate of the World GNI per capita, provided by the World Bank annually. For the IPR, it is calculated from the one-year lagged GDP data available in IMF’s World Economic Outlook publication.
