Sector-level transition indicators
Table S.1 shows the transition scores for 16 sectors in all of the countries where the EBRD works. The methodology is broadly unchanged from previous years (see Chapter 1 of the Transition Report 2010 for a detailed explanation), but some adjustments have been made in the capital markets sector.1

Note: The transition indicators range from 1 to 4+, with 1 representing little or no change relative to a rigid centrally planned economy and 4+ representing the standards of an industrialised market economy. For a detailed breakdown of each of the areas of reform, see the methodological notes in the online version of this Transition Report (tr.ebrd.com). Upgrades and downgrades are marked by upward and downward arrows respectively. A colour code is used for ease of recognition: green indicates a sector that is at a fairly advanced stage of transition, scoring 3+ or higher. Conversely, dark red denotes sectors where transition has barely advanced and the score is 2 or lower.
There were nine one-notch upgrades this year: electric power (Estonia), urban transport (Moldova), roads (Moldova and the Slovak Republic), MSME finance (Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro and Turkey) and private equity (Serbia). There were 12 downgrades: ICT (Hungary), electric power (Hungary), water and wastewater (Hungary), banking (Hungary and Kazakhstan), private equity (Croatia, Estonia and Latvia) and capital markets (Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Poland and Ukraine). A methodological adjustment in the capital market sector has also led to a number of changes (affecting Bulgaria, Croatia, Jordan, Latvia, Moldova, Montenegro, Morocco, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia), which are not marked as upgrades or downgrades as they do not represent improvements in or the reversal of capital market reforms. Scores for sustainable energy are currently undergoing revision. Please note that not all scores for Cyprus were available at the time of printing, but will be added to the online version of this Transition Report.
Tables S.2 and S.3 show the component ratings for market structure and market-supporting institutions and policies respectively, which together make up the overall sector-level assessment. There have been nine upgrades and 12 downgrades2 – indicated by upward and downward arrows respectively – the reasons for which are outlined in the following sections (see also the “Countries” section of the online Transition Report, at tr.ebrd.com). Changes to inclusion assessments, which have also undergone some methodological adjustments, are presented in Tables S.4 to S.6, as well as being explained in detail in the “Inclusion” section.

Note: “Large” indicates a major transition gap. “Negligible” indicates standards and performance that are typical of advanced industrialised economies. A historical revision taking into account the availability of new data has been conducted for Jordan’s capital market sector. Please also note the correction for Hungary’s railway sector which was previously misreported. In addition, not all gaps for Cyprus were available at the time of printing, but will be added to the online version of this Transition Report.
