Aggregated regional government finance

The aggregated regional government finance database (Aggregated REGOFI) provides a selection of indicators on expenditure, revenue, and debt for the entire regional government sector in OECD and EU countries.<br/><br/>The time coverage ranges from 2010 to 2022 (based on data availability). This database has been produced in the context of the OECD/EU joint project <a href="https://www.oecd.org/regional/multi-level-governance/strengtheninganalyticalframeworksanddataonsubnationalgovernmentfinanceandpublicemployment.htm">Strengthening analytical frameworks and data on subnational government finance and public employment</a> with the goal of collecting, standardising, and disseminating high-quality comparable data for local government finance and employment. <br/><br/>This data provides information to assess the capacities and decision-making power of municipalities and regions, whose role is essential in developing place-based policy. It also allows for within and cross-country comparisons, which sheds light on the disparities between subnational governments in terms of fulfilling their mandates and their ability to raise own-source revenue. You will find more information on subnational government responsibilities in the <a href="https://www.sng-wofi.org/country-profiles/">World Observatory on Subnational Government Finance and Investment.</a>
