Primary inputs are drawn from:
- Official institutions: central banks, national statistical agencies, ministries of finance, and regulatory authorities
- Multilateral institutions: global and regional bodies covering macroeconomic, sovereign, and private capital data
- Credit and rating providers: sovereign and corporate credit assessments, rating actions, and outlooks
- Industry bodies: organizations publishing data on private capital activity, market structure, and sector trends
- Market infrastructure and data providers: stock exchanges, fixed income markets, and pricing services
Coverage
Data spans macroeconomic, financial, and capital market activity, including:
- Growth, inflation, and monetary conditions
- Fiscal and sovereign indicators
- External balances and reserves
- Private capital activity, including deal flow, fund formation, and exits
- Public market pricing across equities, fixed income, FX, and commodities
Frequency
Data is incorporated based on source availability:

Processing
