Adding stuff up
is hard
Aggregation and the WDI
![Page 2: PowerPoint Presentation · 2018. 3. 16. · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Heather Page Created Date: 3/5/2018 1:27:41 PM](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071411/61069d2f8eb3d624fe354e3e/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
World Development Indicators (WDI)
• Collection of 1500+ development indicators
• Aim is Convenience and Credibility
• Includes national, regional and global estimates

Aggregation: Why and what?
• Analytical: Provide benchmarks
- Regions
- Income groups
• Operational:
- Lending categories
• Custom aggregations:
- WDI allows for flexible aggregation and definition of groups, regions

Global Wealth Grew 66% between 1995 and 2014Total wealth (USD Trillions, constant 2014)

Aggregation: Where?
Aggregation is not uniform as we have 70+ partners
5
Aggregations take place:
• Inside WDI database
• Outside WDI database
- World Bank experts
- Non World bank experts
![Page 7: PowerPoint Presentation · 2018. 3. 16. · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Heather Page Created Date: 3/5/2018 1:27:41 PM](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071411/61069d2f8eb3d624fe354e3e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Aggregation: How?
Key decisions:
• How to weight individual data points?
- Population, countries, size of the economy
• How to handle missing values?
- Exclude, threshold, impute

Aggregation: How? Weighting
Typical weights used in WDI
• Population
- Prevalence of undernourishment (% of population)
- Fertility rate (weight: women between 15 and 49)
• Economy size
- Gross domestic savings (% of GDP)
• Country (simple average)
- Equity of public resource use (country level index)

Aggregation: How? Missing values
![Page 10: PowerPoint Presentation · 2018. 3. 16. · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Heather Page Created Date: 3/5/2018 1:27:41 PM](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071411/61069d2f8eb3d624fe354e3e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Aggregation with missing dataWhat happens when missing are removed?

Aggregation thresholds
Typical WDI thresholds:
• Sum and averages: 67%
• Median: 50%
Non-WDI thresholds:
• Poverty: 40% (over period of +/- 2 years from reference year)
• Safely managed water and sanitation: 30%
• Basic drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene services: 50%

Mean of non-
missing values
Imputing missing values in time series data

Aggregation: Summing it up!
• Development of better standards and methods (urban / rural)
• Be more transparent: Better labeling and documentation
• Global approach
• Systematic imputation of missing values
Leverage all available information to estimate to provide
best estimates

Aggregation thresholds: Poverty
Aggregate if at least 40% of group total population covered by survey +/- 2 years from reference year.
Alignment of country-level estimates in time
Aggregation and population coverage
Inclusion of high income countries
Previously, global poverty estimates assumed that the "high income economies" not in the PovcalNet regions had
zero people living in extreme poverty.
At the recommendation of Commission on Global Poverty (World Bank, 2017), we now adopt a truly global approach
to poverty measurement and no longer impose this assumption.
From October 2017, the global poverty estimate includes poverty estimates from several high income countries and
aggregated for the group “Other High Income Countries”
Allows for global aggregation of poverty also for higher poverty lines (than $1.90) for which the zero poverty
assumption unreasonable.
