Description
This year’s issue of the SSI features regional tables in the introductory section followed by summary
country tables. As far as possible, a full series of economic and socio-economic indicators is given for all
CDCC member States for the period 2001-2007. In addition, the data sources for each country are
provided, thereby making this publication a good starting point for researchers who are interested in more
detailed statistics. Every effort was made to ensure that those changes did not compromise the quality
and usefulness of the publication. To ensure accessibility to the full data series, the complete series for
each country is also available on a cd-rom. Access to these series can also be obtained through our
website www.eclacpos.org .
Finally, the ECLAC Subregional Headquarters for the Caribbean wishes to extend sincerest appreciation
to the national statistical offices and central banks for their timely submissions that contributed to the
overall success of this publication
