Can You Guess World's 10 Safest Countries?

A travel insurance comparison website Insurly has recently revealed their ranking of the World's Safest Countries in 2020. Rather unsurprisingly, Switzerland topped the list.

The countries were analysed with the help of the methodology developed by the website. A number of parameters is taken into consideration while calvculating the safety index for each country. These parametres include the frequency of natural disasters, the quality of healthcare systems, levels of violent crime and terrorist threat, etc.

Switzerland got the highest rating of 93.4 out of 100. From the point of view of transport risks the country scored 98 out of 100 (100 is the highest safety mark), so you are unlikely to get into trouble while taking a bus or a train in Switzerland.

Singapore is a close runner up with 92.7 points out of 100. According to the rating, Singapore is the safest Asian country. The country is also evaluated as very asfe as far as the risk of natural disasters is concerned – 93 out of 100.

The third world's safest country is Norway with 91.1 out of 100. Norway was one of the most promising contenders to top the ranking with 98 out of 100 for transport risks and 95 out of 100 for health care, but the risks of violence in Norway are estimated as 75 out of 100.

Here is the chart of 10 countries which made it up to the Top-10 world's safets countries.
