• Statistical Performance Indicators (SPI)

  Public

  This dataset is classified as Public under the Access to Information Classification Policy. Users inside and outside the Bank can access this dataset. The Statistical Performance Indicators (SPI) is a framework to measure progress in statistical capacity building and related investments. It covers five aspects: data use, data services, data products, data sources, and data infrastructure. Countries will be given an opportunity to dispute the values that make up our indicators. The team takes every effort to make sure the data presented in the Statistical Performance Indicators are accurate, but it is possible that the sources we used to assign values for our indicators are occasionally not up to date or accurate despite these efforts. Because of this, countries will have a window to provide documentation for any disputed values through contacting the Bank directly or via data@worldbank.org. "

• Identification for Development (ID4D) Data

  Public

  The Identification for Development (ID4D) data presents a collection of indicators that are of relevance for the estimation of adult and child ID coverage and for understanding foundational ID systems' digital capabilities. The indicators have been compiled from multiple sources, including a specialized ID module included in the Global Findex survey and officially recognized international sources such as UNICEF. Although there is no single, globally recognized measure of having a ‘proof of legal identity’ that would cover children and adults at all ages or, of the digital capabilities of foundational ID systems, the combination of these indicators can help better understand where and what gaps in remain in accessing identification and, in turn, in accessing the services and transactions for which an official proof of identity is often required.

• WDI Database Archives

  Public

  The WDI Database Archives (WDI-DA) contains previous versions of the World Development Indicators database, including indicators that have been discontinued. Data are drawn from all available electronic releases going back to 1989. Users should exercise caution when comparing data from different versions, as the same codes have been used to reference series with different base years or different valuations of a country's local currency. For example, the series code for constant US dollar GDP (NY.GDP.MKTP.KD), which is currently based in 2015, has been used in previous editions when the base year was 1987, 1995, 2000, 2005, and 2010. Please note that when an indicator is available in the WDI Archives and in the current WDI database, only the current metadata for this indicator is available in both databases. We will be working to improve the usability of the archives by harmonizing codes and names to the extent possible and adding additional metadata.
