About this data
Covers 200 countries with data from 1962 to 2014. It has three main indicators: the Export Diversification Index, which can be disaggregated into sub-indices covering the Extensive Margin and the Intensive Margin. As these are Theil indices, higher values for all three correspond to lower export diversification.
