04Caveats
Read before you use
What this edition’s numbers are and are not, worked out from the file itself.
One year of the 2026 release
Every year in this series comes from OECD’s 2026 release, recalculated on one method. It can differ from what was first published for 2021.
127 distinct values among 132
Values are stored exactly as published, to 19 decimals. 6 countries share 0.00000. Countries sharing a value share a position too.
