Finland has been ranked first for three consecutive years due to its strong performance across all categories measured by the report including healthy life expectancy at birth; freedom from corruption; perceived social support; generosity per capita; GDP per capita adjusted for purchasing power parity among others.

In addition to these factors, Finland also scores highly on “life satisfaction” with citizens feeling that they have good control over their lives as well as having a sense of purpose within society itself which is seen through higher rates of volunteering compared with other developed nations.
