Germany scored high on the supply chain factors that the FM Global Resilience Index looks at when computing its rankings . The European country ’ s high ranking in the index was driven – at least in part – by its strong showing in areas such as being able to pinpoint where products , parts and components are – in transit – from one part of the process to the next .

The country continues to show strong results in areas such as control of corruption , low political risk , economic productivity and resilience in the event of an oil shock .
