A critical challenge faced by nations today is to maintain economic growth and competitiveness in international markets. In the above perspective measurement and management of Intellectual Capital (IC) of a nation has now become acute for building wealth and value creation capacity of a country. Policy makers are in need of a strategic management tool to measure and develop IC assets of a country. The present research extends the framework of Skandia Navigator from the corporate level to the country level and develops a pragmatic tool on the extended framework to evaluate the intellectual capital of a country, finally we present a case study of Pakistan to understand the complexities involved in the process. The Intellectual Capital of Pakistan is measured with the help of National indices on five facets.
