The Isle of Man needs to think internationally when it comes to the economy - and not just look to traditional competitors.
A new independent report, compiled by Island Analysis, has measured the economic and social performance of 100 small nations around the world.
It looks at things like growth, performance and unemployment levels - with the Isle of Man ranking at the second highest for GDP per head of population and the second lowest for unemployment.
Allan Bell says it paints the Island in a good light against a range of other places:
Two more schemes backed by government fund
Island to get Bikesafe scheme for first time
Jurby Junk's Stella dies aged 90
No plans to publish UK's assisted dying letters
Burst water main disrupts Onchan supply
Government advice following spike in data breaches
Plans for four-foot flood walls at Ramsey harbour
Garage blaze in the early hours of this morning
