    PresenterPresentation NotesThe most trusted institution in the world continues to be NGOs. It is particularly interesting to watch the rise of NGOs in Asia. NGOs are followed by business, in which Trust is stable and rising, but only in developing markets. Trust in Media had been rising for the last 3 years, but fell from 57 to 52 this year – but we have a theory as to why. Not a good story for government, which is in last place and falling fast.

    PresenterPresentation NotesThe Trust Index looks at the average score across the 4 institutions in all 27 markets.In blue (at the top) are typically Asian markets, the middle is usually a mix of Asian and European countries, but some big changes this year are that the US and France moved from the high middle to really unhappy – in the red/at the bottom. This is where the US was in 2009. Meanwhile, the top 6 countries are all developing markets. The EU (especially Poland and Russia) is pessimistic, along with the US, and Asia is up and moving north.

    NGOs most trusted institution in 20 of the 27 countries surveyed in 2014

    PresenterPresentation NotesNGOs have achieved a new plateau around 60%. In 18 of 27 markets surveyed there is great trust in NGOs, and it is the most trusted institution in 20 of the 27 markets – it actually exceeds that in government or in business in China, which is impressive. NGO trust is also very high in the US and EU – they are considered good, and the alternative to both business and government.

Lord Leveson and the phone tapping scandal in the UK – all of this has a corrosive effect.In developing markets there is a much higher level of trust, while in developed markets it is back down.

    PresenterPresentation NotesTrust in government is at a scary level. We saw a 16 point drop in the US, 17 in France. 7 countries are at historic lows. The general population in 20 of 27 markets is under 50 percent trust. The consequence is the biggest ever gap between trust in business and government. The initial instinct of business in this environment may be to say deregulation, which could not be more wrong.

At 80 and 79 percent we see Germany and Sweden, respectively. China, India and Mexico are the least trusted. BRIC nations face an uphill battle in initial levels of trust and face a global trust bias as it relates to how they perform.

    LEVELS OF TRUST IN SOURCES OF INFORMATION

    THE POWER OF SEARCH

    PresenterPresentation NotesOver the last 5 years we have seen the power of search, which has now eclipsed all other sources of information as the validator. It is where you go for information, breaking news and to confirm what is or is not happening. This is particularly important for PR – you must focus on search engine optimization, consider those with highest search results, not just brand names.
