why trust these numbers
Primary sources only

Every number is read on the publisher's own page: UN, World Bank, IMF, national statistics offices.

Traceable

Each plate names its source, edition and data year, and labels facts, estimates and forecasts.

Corrected in public

Errors are fixed within 24 hours, noted on the plate, and licensees get the new files.

No paid placement

Buyers and sponsors never choose a topic, a number or a rank.
