How this figure is calculated
Total reserves (includes gold, current US$) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Total reserves (includes gold, current US$) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Total reserves International Financial Statistics database, International Monetary Fund (IMF)
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
