A system-level framework for reading the capital chain of an economy or a sector, through the same structural variables in the same order.
About the Document
The System Explainer
The System Explainer introduces the five structural variables used in every BTI Reports country brief: Anchor, Demand, Circulation, Constraints and Integrity Signals. The first four describe how an economy generates, moves and limits capital. The fifth tests whether that structure still operates as described. The first four run in every publication. The fifth closes a country brief, which is why a sector edition reads a structure in four stages and a country brief in five. The document is five pages. Every BTI Reports publication is written from it.
