Glossary Of TermsEconomic dataNominal GDP (bil. US$). Total U.S. dollar market value (converted at current exchange rates) of goods and services produced by resident factors of production.

GDP per capita (US$). Total U.S. dollar market value (converted at current exchange rates) of goods and services produced by resident factors of production, divided by population.

Savings/GDP (%). Investment plus the current account surplus (deficit), as a percent of GDP.

Investment/GDP (%). Expenditure on capital goods including plant, equipment, and housing, plus the change in inventories, as a percent of GDP.

Real GDP (% change). Percent change in constant-price GDP.

Real investment (% change). Percent change in constant-price investment.

Unemployment (% of workforce). Average percent of the labor force not employed and actively searching for work (definitions and coverage vary by country).

Consumer Price Index (% change). Average percent change in index of prices of a representative set of consumer goods bought by a typical household on a regular basis.

Depository corporation claims on resident nongovernment sectors (% change). Claims by depository corporations, other than the central bank, on all residents except the general gov-ernment. The data do not include claims on nonresidents. Depository corporations are usually financial institutions, other than the central bank, whose liabilities are included in the national definition of broad money.

General government dataGeneral government. Aggregate of the national, regional, and local government sectors, including social security, and excluding intergovernmental transactions.

Net debt/GDP (%). Gross debt minus general government financial assets (cash, deposits, arms-length loans, and minority holdings of traded equities), as a percent of GDP.

Debt net of government deposits/GDP (%). Gross debt minus the most liquid general government financial assets (cash and deposits), as a percent of GDP.

Gross debt/GDP (%). Debt incurred by national, regional, and local governments, either for governmental purposes or for on-lending to a government-owned or private sector entity, as a percent of GDP. Internal holdings, including social security and pension fund investments in government debt, are netted out.

Surplus (deficit)/GDP (%). General government operating and capital revenue, excluding proceeds from privatization, minus operating and capital and extraordinary expenditures (though generally excluding aid to the financial sector), as a percent of GDP.

Primary balance/GDP (%). Surplus (deficit) plus interest payments on general government debt, as a percent of GDP.

Revenue/GDP (%). General government recurrent revenue, from sources such as taxes, fees and charges, interest, and dividends, plus capital revenue (largely grants), as a percent of GDP.

Expenditure/GDP (%). General government recurrent expenditure, for purposes such as salaries, goods for immediate consumption, interest, subsidies, and other transfers, plus capital spending that increases the value of general government physical assets, plus net lending (where a subsidy is involved), as a percent of GDP.

Interest/GDP (%). Interest payments on general government debt, as a percent of GDP.

Balance-of-payments dataCurrent account receipts (CAR)/GDP (%). CAR, which include proceeds from exports of goods and services, factor income (compensation of employees plus investment income) earned by residents from nonresidents, and official and private transfers to residents from nonresidents, as a percent of GDP.

Real exports (% change). Percent change in the volume of exports of goods and services, as defined in the national income accounts.



Current account balance/GDP (%). Exports of goods and services minus imports of the same plus net factor income plus official and private net transfers, as a percent of GDP.

Current account balance/CAR (%). Exports of goods and services minus imports of the same plus net factor income plus official and private net transfers, as a percent of current ac-count receipts.

Net external borrowing/CAR (%). The current account deficit (surplus) minus net inflows from foreign direct investment (both equity and loans) and portfolio equity investments, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates net external debt repayment.

Usable reserves/current account payments (months). Official foreign exchange reserves (including gold at market price) minus items not readily available for foreign exchange operations and repayment of external debt (such as: (1) reserves pledged as security; (2) mark-to market losses on reserves sold forward; (3) reserves deposited with offshore branches of domestic fi-nancial institutions; and (4) the monetary base for sovereigns with a currency board or longstanding fixed peg), divided by monthly imports of goods and services, plus factor income earned by nonresidents from residents, plus transfers to nonresidents.

Gross external financing needs (% of CAR plus usable reserves). Current account payments, plus scheduled principal repayments on external debt, plus the stock of short-term debt (original maturity of less than a year), as a percent of CAR plus usable foreign exchange reserves. These data are not presented for the AAA and AA categories because while the explana-tory capacity of this ratio is strong in the middle of the rating range, the ratio tends to be high for the most creditworthy sovereigns because of the importance of short-term debt, although analytically this debt usually does not present the risk that it might further down the rating scale.

Net foreign direct investment (FDI)/GDP (%). Direct investment (both equity and loans)by nonresidents net of residents’ direct investment (both equity and loans)abroad, as a percent of GDP.

External balance sheetNet external liabilities/CAR (%). Total external debt plus the stock of direct investment (both equity and debt) and portfolio equity investment from abroad minus total external assets, which include official reserves, other public sector foreign assets, financial institutions’ deposits with and lending to nonresidents, other private sector deposits with and lending to nonresi-dents, and the stock of direct and portfolio equity investment placed abroad, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates a net asset position.

Gross external debt/CAR (%). Stock of borrowings in foreign or local currency from nonresidents (including nonresident deposits in resident banks) by the public and private sectors, as a percent of CAR. Excludes borrowings recorded under direct investment.

Net external debt/CAR (%). Total external debt minus non-equity external assets, which include official foreign exchange reserves, other public sector foreign assets, financial institu-tions’ deposits with and lending to nonresidents, and other private sector deposits with and lending to nonresidents, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates net external lending. Excludes debt recorded under direct investment.

Narrow net external debt/CAR (%). The stock of foreign and local currency public and private sector borrowings from nonresidents (including nonresident deposits in resident banks) minus liquid non-equity external assets, which include official foreign exchange reserves, other liquid public sector foreign assets, and financial institutions’ deposits with and lending to nonresidents, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates net external lending.

Net investment payments/CAR (%). Factor income (largely dividends and interest, but also some employee compensation such as for embassy staffs) paid to nonresidents less factor income received from nonresidents, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates net investment receipts.

Net interest payments/CAR (%). Interest paid to nonresidents less interest received from nonresidents, as a percent of CAR. A negative number indicates net interest receipts.
