    By Productivity, Trade and Innovation Sector (VPS/PTI/PTI)
    The Institute for the Integration of Latin America and the Caribbean (INTAL), part of the Integration and Trade Sector of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), conducted the second edition of a survey targeting firms in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) that export both within the region and to extraregional markets. This dataset contains the inputs used to analyze 405 firms, providing insights into how they navigated the second year of the pandemic. It examines the evolution of their exports, the challenges posed by the specific context of the pandemic, the measures they have taken, the public support policies they have received, and their outlook for the future. Additionally, the dataset includes methodological appendices and a sample of the survey.

    By Fiscal Management Division (VPS/IFD/FMM)
    This is the third update of the Equivalent Fiscal Pressure (EFP) Database for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) for the period 1990–2018, based on the IDB-CIAT methodology. The EFP provides a more precise measurement of total resources collected in the region and comprises four components: 1. Traditional tax revenues from general government, including subnational governments. 2. Public contributions to social security. 3. Mandatory contributions to private social security schemes. 4. Non-tax revenues from natural resource exploitation. Following the upward trend since the 1990s, the average EFP for 25 countries increased by more than 6 percentage points of gross domestic product (GDP), rising from 17.3% to 23.6% between 1990 and 2021. Medium-term dynamics are primarily driven by tax revenues, which grew from 13.5% to 18.0% of GDP over the same period. At the individual country level, there is significant heterogeneity in both the evolution and levels of tax revenues and EFP.

The survey was launched in the first country on March 27, 2020, and most responses were collected during April 2020. Participants were recruited through social media using paid advertising campaigns. The data consists entirely of responses to an online survey and therefore does not collect information on the most vulnerable people, who are likely to lack access to the internet or social media. However, the survey contains information for people from different social strata and subnational regions. In this sense, the data are useful for analyzing different patterns by socioeconomic groups within a country and between countries. The data include weights to...
