  • 4 divisions 45 to 99), including trade, transport, hotels and restaurants, finance, real estate, public administration, education and health, as a share of GDP.
  • World Bank national accounts data, compiled from national statistical offices and central banks and from OECD national accounts files.

Current prices, so the share moves with relative prices as well as volumes. Countries that rebase their national accounts can shift it by several points. The latest year varies by country.
