African Economic Outlook: Diversification of African Economies - Diversification index 1998 - 2002

The diversification indicator measures the extent to which exports are diversified. It is constructed as the inverse of a Herfindal index, using desegregated exports at 4 digits. A higher index indicates more export diversification. Source: African Economic Outlook Authors’ calculations www.oecd.org/dev/aeo .
