The purpose of this paper is to present evidence that cultural factors account for sustainability-based outcomes at the national level. Instead of subjective and perception-based measure of sustainable propensity of individuals as used in previous research, this paper uses the directly and objectively captured sustainability scores from the Environmental Performance Index report. The test sample is comprised of 57 countries. Bayesian regression modelling is adopted. One important theoretical contribution is that sustainable competitiveness may be conceptualised as a higher-order concept consisting of two first-order constructs, namely primary resources and derivative capabilities. Cultural determinants vary substantially in the way they are related to these two components. Four cultural characteristics are related to derivative capabilities, while none have any predictive relationship with respect to primary resources. Researchers may use the findings of this study to similarly model the normative or soft factors embedded in hard environmental performance metrics, in the future. Country clusters may exhibit variations and nuances which warrant further investigation
