The study was commissioned by HSBC and its findings are based on a survey by 21,950 expats across 39 countries. The survey ranked countries on parameters such as economics (personal finances, career progression), experience (lifestyle, how safe expats feel) and family (expats' social life, education and childcare, and impact of raising children abroad).
The research was conducted online by YouGov in March-May 2015.The survey found that Switzerland is the most appealing in economic parameters such as salaries and career development but in the overall ranking, it was listed at the 10th spot.
Another European country Sweden topped the charts in terms of family parameters such as education and childcare, and raising children.
New Zealand topped the ranking in lifestyle (experience) parameters such as expats' physical health and quality of life.India has been ranked at the 17th spot based on the overall rankings.
Other findings from the survey: Expats are moving abroad to improve their quality of life and take on new challenges, rather than purely for higher salaries - their appetite for learning new skills in a foreign workplace and how to integrate into a new culture.
Nearly three-quarters (74 per cent) of expats globally find at least one aspect of managing money abroad a challenge. Nearly two in five (37 per cent) expats identify managing finances in different currencies as a key challenge - the most common financial problem faced.
Globally, expats say the cities of London, Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong are the four best places in the world to start a business, due to their strong economies, culture and business environment, that attract the world's expat entrepreneurs.
