How Compass works
Compass is built for people who need to check a figure, cite it, and move on — not for people who want to spend twenty minutes learning an interface.
Every year we hold, not just the headline figure. Chart and table views, with year-on-year change and an index against the base year.
Where the country sits against its regional peers, ranked and charted, so a single number becomes a comparison.
What the indicator measures, what it excludes, where the underlying figures come from and when the series was last refreshed.
Excel and CSV downloads, plus one-click citations in APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard and BibTeX.
Beyond the indicators
Where an indicator raises a question, our analysts answer it in a full forecast report.
