Gross Domestic Private Investment from the Penn World Table 5.6 database shown in Percent Date Type: Year; Country: Hungary Sage Data. Sage Publishing Ltd Sage Data [electronic resource]
Reports the percentage of domestic investment privately purchased as a percentage of gross investment in current international dollars. The basic investment data in national prices is drawn from International Monetary Fund Government Finance Statistics and attributes all non-public investment to the private sector. The Penn World Table (PWT) 5.6 provides purchasing power parity and national income accounts converted to international prices for 152 countries and territories, for the period 1950-1992, and uses 1985 as the reference year. Its expenditure entries are denominated in a common set of prices in a common currency so that real quantity comparisons can be made, both between countries and over time. It also provides information about relative prices within and between countries, as well as demographic data and capital stock estimates. Since the regionalization of the United Nations International Comparison Programme (ICP) beginning with the 1980 benchmark, Robert Summers and Alan Heston at the Center for International Comparisons of Production, Income and Prices at the University of Pennsylvania have been using ICP benchmark comparisons as a basis for estimating PPPs (purchasing power parities) for non-benchmark countries and extrapolations backward and forward in time.
