The second in the series ‘Benchmark for fifth generation collaborative digital regulation 2023: global and regional trends’ is the analytical companion of the 2023 edition of the G5 Benchmark.

The paper highlights the trends and findings on the evolution of digital regulation based on the latest dataset. This new edition contains the latest information for 193 countries and economies (the same as the 2021 sample) and follows the established methodology, making it possible to monitor the changes of each country over the past two years. The analysis looks at the digital regulation patterns across different regional and development profiles, including in LDCs, LLDCs and SIDS. It also provides a comprehensive background on how the Benchmark was created and demonstrates the statistical robustness of the new edition.

The analysis is aimed at a technical audience with a background in statistics and advanced technical knowledge of digital regulation, and it contributes to the transparency and traceability of the application of the established methodology while augmenting the body of knowledge in this area.
