Note(s): ^aOne-way ANOVA was used to test the null hypothesis that the average index for each group of countries come from the same sample; the corresponding F-values (p-values) are shown, the results of the ANOVA indicate the null hypothesis can be rejected at the 0.10 in all but the cost index of setting up a new company (included is the marginal results obtained for days to evict a tenant); ^bCommon Law includes all English countries and Civil Law includes all French countries
