Measurement definition and metadata source
Publisher measure: Stocks traded, total value (% of GDP)
The value of shares traded is the total number of shares traded, both domestic and foreign, multiplied by their respective matching prices. Figures are single counted (only one side of the transaction is considered). Companies admitted to listing and admitted to trading are included in the data. Data are end of year values.
Publisher metadata, retrieved . That is when the definition was last checked, not when these figures were published.
Label correction: The source is traded value relative to GDP, not the market turnover ratio. Correction record.
