Our Mission
Economic News Portal is dedicated to making global economic inequality data accessible, understandable, and actionable. We believe that transparent access to income distribution data is essential for informed public discourse on economic policy.
What We Do
We compile, analyze, and present income inequality data for 199 countries spanning from 1980 to 2024. Our platform transforms raw economic data from authoritative sources into clear, visual, and comparable country profiles that anyone can understand.
Each country profile on our site includes key income distribution metrics (top 1%, top 10%, and bottom 50% income shares), historical trend analysis, global and regional comparisons, and supplementary indicators like GDP per capita, Gini index, and poverty rates where available.
Our Expertise
Our team consists of data analysts and economists with expertise in income distribution research, development economics, and data visualization. We draw on methodologies established by leading inequality researchers and institutions including the World Inequality Database (WID), the World Bank, and academic publications in economic journals.
Data Integrity
We are committed to accuracy and transparency. All data on this site is sourced from established datasets with clear provenance. We document our methodology, cite our sources, and update our content when new data becomes available. If you identify any errors, please contact us so we can correct them promptly.
