Overall level of statistical capacity (scale 0 - 100)

The value for Overall level of statistical capacity (scale 0 - 100) in IDA only was 57.70 as of 2020. As the graph below shows, over the past 16 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 61.60 in 2015 and a minimum value of 56.95 in 2004.

Definition: The Statistical Capacity Indicator is a composite score assessing the capacity of a country’s statistical system. It is based on a diagnostic framework assessing the following areas: methodology; data sources; and periodicity and timeliness. Countries are scored against 25 criteria in these areas, using publicly available information and/or country input. The overall Statistical Capacity score is then calculated as a simple average of all three area scores on a scale of 0-100.

Periodicity and timeliness assessment of statistical capacity (scale 0 - 100)

The value for Periodicity and timeliness assessment of statistical capacity (scale 0 - 100) in IDA only was 80.22 as of 2020. As the graph below shows, over the past 16 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 82.81 in 2018 and a minimum value of 76.90 in 2004.

Definition: The periodicity and timeliness indicator assesses the availability and periodicity of key socioeconomic indicators. It measures the extent to which data are made accessible to users through transformation of source data into timely statistical outputs. The periodicity score is calculated as the weighted average of 10 underlying indicator scores. The final periodicity score contributes 1/3 of the overall Statistical Capacity Indicator score.
