Bahrain has recorded a new achievement after ranking first in both the Arab world and the Gulf in the Women’s Leadership Opportunities indicator, one of the key measures within the Global Talent Competitiveness Index (GTCI) 2025 issued by INSEAD.

This indicator is calculated using data from the World Economic Forum’s annual Executive Opinion Survey (Davos).

It assesses the availability of leadership opportunities for women in the workplace, as well as the extent to which women enjoy equal opportunities to access senior leadership positions in companies.

The Global Talent Competitiveness Index is recognised as one of the world’s leading international reference reports for evaluating countries’ capacities to develop, attract, and retain talent.

The report stated “economies such as Brazil, Bahrain, France, and the United Kingdom demonstrate a balanced input–output relationship, suggesting proportionate returns on their talent competitiveness investments. These economies sustain equilibrium between talent investments and resulting performance, indicating mature and stable talent ecosystems.”

This assessment reflects the Kingdom’s efforts to translate investment in human capital into sustainable outcomes and highlights its position among world’ growing economies.
