The Open Budget Index (OBI) ranks countries(between 0 and 100) based on the responsesto 95 survey questions on the degree ofbudget transparency and the degreeto which budget information is publiclyavailable. The survey also asks questionsabout public participation and oversight,although these questions are not used tocalculate the index.119. IBP 2012.120. See WBG 2014a.121. IBP 2011.122.

One way of doing this is through mispricinggoods and services that are transferredbetween different branches of the samecompany operating in different countries.By setting up a branch in a tax haven andthen manipulating the price of importspurchased from and exports shipped to otherdivisions and affiliates of the same companyoperating in different countries, corporationscan show their profits as accruing to thebranch in a tax haven rather than in acountry with higher taxes.132.

Following the resolution of the 15thInternational Conference of LabourStatisticians (ICLS) in 1993, various effortshave been made to develop guidelinesand other tools to assist countries in theproduction of data on informal employment.These include the Guidelines on InformalEmployment adopted by the 17th ICLS in2003 (ILO 2003) as well as a manual on themeasurement of informality (ILO 2013e).7. Hirway and Jose 2011.8. See Deaton and Grosh 2000 for details on themerits and challenges of collecting incomeand consumption data using householdsurveys.9. Even though the intent is usually to interviewthe most knowledgeable person, surveyorshave to content with the realities on theground and the person who is availableat the time of the survey—who may be awoman—is usually selected for the interview.10. This is an example of the difference betweengender statistics and sex-disaggregateddata: while sex-disaggregated data areneeded to show the differences betweenwomen and men, gender statistics is abroader concept that enables the analysis ofgender issues.11.

The number of maternal deaths in 2013 wasestimated to be 289,000.
