CDC Group: Country-Level Investment, Tax, and Employment by Sector

CDC Group plc's aggregated investment data provides a sectoral breakdown of capital, tax contributions, and employment across its portfolio countries. Figures for employee numbers and taxes paid exclude countries with only a single investment, focusing on multi-investment operations. The dataset offers a consolidated view of the development finance institution's economic footprint.

Use Cases

• Analyzing sectoral allocation of development capital across countries based on aggregated investment values.
• Estimating the fiscal contribution of CDC-backed enterprises to host governments using reported tax data.
• Assessing direct employment generation by sector within CDC's investment portfolio.
• Comparing the scale and structure of CDC's investments between different geographic regions.

Strengths

• Data is structured by both country and sector, allowing for cross-cutting analysis.
• License is explicitly stated as OGL-UK-3.0, clarifying permissible reuse.
• Dataset is present on multiple platform entries, suggesting it is a maintained core record.

Limitations

• Column names are unknown, limiting understanding of specific metrics and dimensions.
• Key metadata such as row count, file size, and specific column names is missing from all sources.
• The 'last updated' date is in the future (2026-07-08), indicating a potential metadata error or placeholder value.
