The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) is an analysis tool created by the World Bank. The survey-based LPI 1.0 (pre 2026) was the combination of the weighted average of the country scores on six key dimensions: customs performance, infrastructure quality, ease of arranging shipments, logistics services quality, consignments tracking and tracing and timeliness of shipments as well as practical data measuring logistics efficiency. This measure indicated the relative ease and efficiency with which products could be moved into and inside a country. Singapore and Finland were the most efficient and highest ranked LPI countries as per the 2023 LPI. After 2026 the LPI was upgraded to the 2.0 version, reflecting the major methodological shift done in that years LPI. The Logistics Performance Index was reported by the World Bank every two years from 2010 to 2018 with a break in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a restructuring of the index methodology, eventually coming out only in 2023. The LPI is based on data from stakeholders in the countries where they operate and those with which they trade. Since 2023 the LPI incorporates certain key performance indicators and big data to complement the results of the survey. Since 2026 the LPI methodology has been fully redesigned. LPI results have been used in many policy reports and documents prepared by multilateral organizations and findings from the index provide a worldwide general benchmark for the logistics industry and for logistics users. LPI results have also been embraced by the academic community.
