Precision

The headline is stored to 15 decimals, as published.

Rounded by this site

Never. Tables on screen may show fewer decimals; the files never do.

Changed by this site

Reshaped into one row per country: regional and income-group totals are left out, only the columns listed are kept, each row gets its ISO 3166 code, and some country names are brought to one spelling. No value is recalculated, rescaled or rounded.

From World Bank Data360 (Global Findex, WB_FINDEX_FIN24ASD_ND), the Bank's own figures for adults aged 15 and over. Economies surveyed in 2022, whose fieldwork for the 2021 wave ran late, are left out, as they are on this site's account-ownership page.
