Net bilateral aid flows track Luxembourg's official development assistance disbursements minus loan repayments, measured in current US dollars. The dataset is compiled by the World Bank's World Development Indicators from reports by Development Assistance Committee members. Data collection for certain advanced recipient countries ended in 2004.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in Luxembourg's net ODA disbursements over time to assess donor commitment.
- Compare Luxembourg's aid flows against other DAC donors using the reported US dollar values.
- Model the relationship between aid flows and economic indicators for recipient countries listed in the DAC ODA recipient list.
Strengths
- Data is sourced from the authoritative Development Assistance Committee (DAC), comprising 30 members including major economies.
- Financial flows are standardized in current US dollars, enabling cross-country and temporal comparisons.
Limitations
- Data for aid to advanced countries (Part II recipients) is stale, with collection ending after 2004.
- The specific number of data points (rows), time range, and granularity (e.g., annual vs. quarterly) are unknown.
