About this indicator

Source
International Monetary Fund
Frequency
Annual
Release
Published annually, referring to a specific date in the year.
What it is
The number of inhabitants of a country and how it changes over time. It is a structural indicator that underpins many economic and social ratios (GDP per capita, density, per-capita rates, etc.).
How it's calculated
It is derived from population censuses and residential-change statistics, updated with births, deaths and net migration. A figure referred to an annual reference date is usually provided.
Market implications
Demographic trends shape the economy's potential growth, the labour market, consumption and spending on pensions and healthcare, and are central to public-policy planning.
Limitations
It is a low-frequency figure, and inter-census numbers are estimates subject to revision when new censuses or better migration statistics become available.
