Old talk
editThis list seems incomplete. Where is e.g. France and Norway?
The article only talks about Germany, not about West Germany and East Germany as separate. Why, then, does the map only include West Germany. This should be fixed before the map is re-inserted back into the article. Ronline ✉ 09:42, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- These issues have since been fixed. -- Beland (talk) 22:03, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
FTSE Group Developed Country list
editMy reading of the FTSE Group site is that the FTSE Group has one system for classifying countries.
The glossary has entries for
- Developed Country
- Emerging Markets
- Frontier Markets
- Secondary emerging countries
In the glossary the Developed Country list - the date of production via view source is 2005 , but the FTSE group elevated South Korea and Israel to Developed status in 2008 and 2007. (Developed status)
In the more recent Country Classification http://www.ftse.com/Indices/Country_Classification/Downloads/FTSE_Country_Classification_Sept_08_update.pdf South Korea and Israel are included but here they are refered to as developed markets - but this list does not say developed country. It is a list in which the country "status" is defined as "developed"
The details of the criteria are on http://www.ftse.com/Indices/Country_Classification/index.jsp On the page itself it gives a general description - on the page itself it says: "In 2003, FTSE conducted a widespread market consultation which resulted in the development of a framework and criteria for assigning countries based on:
- Economic size
- Wealth
- Quality of markets
- Depth and breadth of markets
FTSE applies this framework to conduct an annual review of the market status of all countries into Developed..."
The full list including the WB's GNI High Income bit is given in each of the regional bits eg: http://www.ftse.com/Indices/Country_Classification/Downloads/Asia_Pacific_Matrix_Sept_08.pdf.
So on the basis of this my argument is we can say the FTSE Group has a "developed country" list.
And that we can get the criteria for inclusion are the High Income + things related to the Markets. (Msrasnw (talk) 14:42, 1 February 2009 (UTC))

Poland
editThe source (supplied in an old version) about Poland, states clearly: "Poland, currently an advanced emerging market, to be reclassified as a Developed market...The implementation of Poland and Kuwait's revised market status will commence from September 2018".
