STAN R&D expenditures in Industry (ISIC Rev. 4)

Description

The OECD’s ANalytical Business Enterprise Research and Development (ANBERD) database presents annual data on R&D expenditures by industry and was developed to provide analysts with comprehensive data on industrial R&D expenditures that address the problems of international comparability and breaks in the time series of official business enterprise R&D data. The ANBERD database includes a number of estimations and is published under the responsibility of the Secretary General of the OECD as it does not represent Member countries’ official submissions of business enterprise R&D data. The current version of the ANBERD database presents industrial R&D expenditure data broken down in up to 100 manufacturing and services sectors for OECD countries and selected non-member economies from 1987 onwards. For the first time, the reported data are in ISIC Revision 4 and are expressed in national currencies as well as in PPP US dollars, both at current and constant prices. The ANBERD data are updated continuously on a rolling basis and additional countries will be included in the coming months as they become available.
