Key to Indices:

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the sum of the value added by all producers in
an economy.

Gross Domestic Product per Capita is the total annual output of a country’s
economy divided by the mid-year population. Values are obtained directly from the
World Bank.

Average Annual Growth Rate of GDP is the average percentage growth of a
country or region’s economy for each year between (and including) 1995 and 2005.


GDP Distribution by Sector
Distribution of GDP by Sector is the percent of total output of goods and services
that is a result of value added by a given sector.

Adjusted Net Savings (previously “genuine savings”) is equal to a nation’s private
and public net savings (gross domestic product plus net income and transfers from
abroad minus consumption of fixed capital) plus education expenditure, minus
energy depletion, mineral depletion, net forest depletion, and carbon dioxide and
particulate emissions damage.
