The United States and Germany remain atop the latest Business Competitiveness Index, with China continuing to slip in the rankings while India ascends, according to a report released from Harvard Business School’s Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness.

The Index is part of the research contributing to The Global Competitiveness Report 2006-2007, released by the World Economic Forum.
