The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) is an independent business within The Economist Group.[1]
Through research and analysis, EIU offers forecasting and advisory services to its clients. It provides country, industry and management analysis worldwide and incorporates the former Business International Corporation, a U.S. company acquired by the parent organization in 1986. It is particularly well known for its monthly country reports, five-year country economic forecasts, country risk service reports and industry reports. The company also specialises in tailored research for companies that require analysis for particular markets or business sectors. 2006 marked the 60th anniversary of the Economist Intelligence Unit's inception.

NTI and the EIU relied on a panel of
international experts and advisors. Members included people who have been
directly responsible for nuclear security at facilities and in governments as
well as people who have worked on nuclear security issues in academia and
at international organizations. NTI also conducted briefings with and sought
feedback from governments and a host of other experts worldwide. This
support strengthened the intellectual framework for the Index and enhanced
its accuracy.
Although the Index ranks countries, it is not about congratulating some and
chastising others. Instead, it highlights that all countries can and must do more
to strengthen security around the world’s most dangerous materials. To that
end, the NTI Index offers priorities and actionable recommendations. It should
be used as a tool and as a resource for improvement, not merely as a rating
system. In the future, this Index can become more helpful and accurate, but only
if governments participate in filling gaps and correcting errors that result from a
lack of transparency.
