Excerpt:
The Changing Wealth of Nations 2021 provides an updated database and analysis of the world’s wealth accounts spanning 146 countries, with annual data from 1995 to 2018. It also contains the widest set of assets covered so far, including the value of human capital broken down by gender, as well as many different forms of natural capital, spanning minerals, fossil fuels, forests, mangroves, marine fisheries, and more. This provides a rich set of economic indicators ready for use by a wide set of actors, including government and the private sector, to look beyond traditional measures such as gross domestic product (GDP).
