  • Pesquisa sobre o Coronavírus BID/Cornell: 2020
    Dataset

    By Department of Research and Chief Economist (VPS/RES/RES)
    The IDB/Cornell Coronavirus Survey collects information related to labor market impacts, food security, social distancing, and knowledge of the Covid-19 pandemic through an online survey. The main modules of the questionnaire were standardized across countries to allow data to be pooled and cross-country comparisons to be made. 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...

  • Base de Dados de Gastos de Investimento Público na América Latina (BDD-GIPAL): 2000-2016
    Dataset

    By Fiscal Management Division (VPS/IFD/FMM)
    There are few centralized information systems on the evolution and composition of public investment expenditure in Latin America, a critical aspect for monitoring and evaluating investment priorities. The Database of Public Investment Expenditure in Latin America (BDD-GIPAL), available for 16 countries in the region, provides cross-classifications of expenditures (economic, institutional, and functional) for the period 2000-2016. Analysis of BDD-GIPAL helps answer three key questions: How much is invested? Who invests? And in what is it invested? Public investment in the region increased from 2.8% to 3.9% of GDP (2002-2006 vs. 2012-2016); however, this growth was driven by only five countries. Some countries in the region have delegated greater responsibility for public investment spending to subnational governments. In four countries, subnational governments account for over 50% of total public investment expenditure. Nearly 50% of public investment spending in the region has been...

  • Gastos Públicos Não Contributivos na América Latina e no Caribe Dados: 2010-2015
    Dataset

    By Social Protection and Labor Markets Division (VPS/SCL/SPL)
    This paper presents new data documenting the level and evolution of public spending on non-contributory programs for 16 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. Salaried formal workers contribute to social security and in return have access to an array of benefits -mainly old-age pensions and health services. In recent decades, informal workers – salaried and non-salaried- have gained access to similar benefits, financed through general revenues. Our calculations indicate that, on average, the region spends 1.7% of GDP in these programs. Although they were created in response to social demands, by targeting informal workers these programs may create a behavioral response -i.e. more informality. This paper does not attempt to measure behavioral effects. Its main contribution is to be the first to document this “subsidy to informality” following a common methodology across countries and years in the region.
