The Netherlands and Norway are at the 6th and 7th lines and the U.S. has moved down to the eighth position (it was ranked fifth earlier.) Some weak points in the U.S. political and administrative spheres have resulted in the eighth place in spite of the well developed U.S. ICT infrastructure, the report reads.

Russian Informational technologies capacity is not used fully ether by companies and or by state organizations, Aleksey Prazdnichnykh, Strategy Partners Group partner, and WEF Russia ICT competitiveness analysis program coordinator said. “It is possible to improve the situation in a short period of time by large-scale and continuous implementation of such technologies as e-government. It is possible to lower barriers in licensing, electric lines connections and customs services,” Prazdnichnykh said. The ICT Development index is based on the open to public statistics data and head of companies poll results. There are 142 countries' detailed profiles in the report including ICT use and penetration indexes in each country's economy. The Strategy of Information Society Development was adopted in Russia in 2008. It stipulates that Russia will reach Top-20 of the most developed IT countries and will be ranked not lower than 10th in the national ICT access level in international ratings.
