Methodology
Partner Researchers and data sources
The Monitor draws on data published by the organisations below. Each figure on the site names its publisher, the period it covers and when The Meridian retrieved it. Listing an organisation here describes where data comes from; it does not indicate a formal partnership.
| Publisher | What it provides | Last checked | Terms |
|---|---|---|---|
| International Monetary Fund, World Economic Outlook | Published twice a year (April and October); includes IMF estimates and projections. | 15 Nov 2026, 04:16 UTC | Terms |
| World Bank, World Development Indicators | Updated several times a year; most series are annual and lag by one to two years. | 15 Nov 2026, 05:13 UTC | Terms |
| World Bank, Worldwide Governance Indicators | Updated once a year; governance score from 0 to 100, where higher means better governance. | 15 Nov 2026, 05:19 UTC | Terms |
| Bank for International Settlements, central bank policy rates | Monthly; compiled from central bank announcements. Covers only some African central banks. | 15 Nov 2026, 05:08 UTC | Terms |
| Partner Research Partner | Licensed research data, refreshed on The Meridian when a new partner export is uploaded. Risk indices: 0-100, higher means higher risk. | 14 Nov 2026, 15:31 UTC | Terms |
| GDELT Project news monitoring | Daily. Headlines link to the original publishers and are not verified by The Meridian. | 15 Nov 2026, 05:48 UTC | Terms |
Automatic updates
Every day the Monitor re-checks each source for all 54 countries and picks up new or revised figures. Every Sunday it re-reads full histories and country details. Failed requests are retried and logged; when a source cannot be reached, the last verified figures stay on the page with their dates.
Verification
Incoming figures are checked for plausible ranges and for unusually large revisions. Anything that fails is held for review by the editors and is not published until confirmed. Routine verified updates publish automatically.
Actuals, estimates, forecasts
IMF figures for the latest year are IMF estimates; later years are projections and are drawn dashed. Partner marks its own first forecast year. World Bank series are published with a lag of one to two years; older values are labelled with their period, never described as current.
Risk indices
Partner risk indices run from 0 to 100, where higher means higher risk. World Bank governance indicators are scores from 0 to 100, where higher means better governance. Rankings order published values; The Meridian does not create its own risk score.
News monitoring
Headlines are collected daily through the GDELT Project, tagged by topic using simple keyword rules, and link to the original publishers. They are not verified or endorsed by The Meridian.
Comparisons
Countries are compared only on the same indicator, from the same source, for the same period. Differences in reporting periods are disclosed.
