No 25, Global Poverty Monitoring Technical Note Series from The World Bank

Abstract: The October 2022 update introduces the 10th edition of the Global Database of Shared Prosperity (GDSP). Shared prosperity, defined as the growth in per capita household income or consumption of the poorest 40 percent of the population, is the World Bank’s second Twin Goal, alongside ending extreme poverty. The new edition of the GDSP revises the figures released in April 2022 to the 2017 PPPs and includes estimates for India. Indicator coverage is also revised to include 81 of the world’s economies in 2019. This technical note describes the GDSP, documents the available data in this edition, and highlights the main differences with the 9th edition.
