The Voice and Accountability indicator in the Federated States of Micronesia has shown a mixed trend over the past 26 years. Starting from a peak of 0.79 in 2004, the country gradually improved its score, reaching an all-time high of 1.15 in 2019. However, it has since slightly declined to 1.07 in 2025, ranking 37th globally. Notably, Micronesia's current score is comparable to that of Slovenia, which shares a similar ranking. The trajectory has been influenced by the country's efforts to strengthen its institutions and promote transparency, although progress has been uneven.
