Statistical concept and methodology: For more information on underlying GDP in current international dollar, please refer to the metadata for "GDP, PPP (current international $)" [NY.GDP.MKTP.PP.CD]. For more information on market exchange reate, please refer to the metadata for "DEC alternative conversion factor (LCU per US$)" [PA.NUS.ATLS].
