These are the 11 richest countries with the biggest organised crime problems
One of the sub-categories used by the WEF is the prevalence of organised crime - listed under the "security" index. Extortion, racketeering, theft, violence and property damage are all factors that could hold back a country's development.
To make the comparisons more reasonable, we only took countries from the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). There are 34 nations, all democracies with mixed or market economies. The group is often though of as a rich countries' club.
We thinned the list down to any OECD countries that fell outside of the top 50 places in the WEF's ranks. The lower the WEF ranking given, the worse the country is for organised crime.
