Property Rights Alliance initiated the IPRI studies for the Hernando de Soto Fellowship Program to contribute to developing accurate and comprehensive measures regarding property rights (PR) on an international scale.
The International Property Rights Index will provide the public, researchers and policymakers, from across the globe, with a tool for comparative analysis and future research on global property rights.
In order to incorporate and grasp the important aspects related to property rights protection, the Index focuses on three areas: Legal and Political Environment (LP), Physical Property Rights (PPR), and Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). The current study analyzes data for 125 countries around the globe, representing ninety-seven percent of world GDP. Of great importance, the 2010 gauge incorporates data of PR protection from various sources, often directly obtained from expert surveys within the evaluated countries.
Instituto Liberdade (Brazil) and 61 global institutions from six continents joined the Property Rights Alliance in Washington, DC, USA and its Hernando de Soto Fellowship program to present the report.
The Portuguese version of the IPRI will be launched on April 13th, 2010, at the press conference during the Brazilian Liberty Forum, on the same day – Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. Read the Portuguese version at the Instituto Liberdade Portal – Portuguese section: www.il-rs.org.br starting from April 14th, 2010.
