All data are from official sources, such as Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE) and the Banco de Portugal (BdP). But Pordata does not only compile information: besides displaying data in a more simple and accessible manner, it also adds descriptions aimed at a better understanding of the various indicators (which can be found in the meta-information associated to the tables). All with the accuracy, comprehensiveness and confidence that Pordata’s users have grown accustomed to.
