2003 514 2.7 n/a
2006 515 4.0 H
2009 514 3.5 H

"s.e." = "standard error", "s.d." = standard deviation

Note for all tables

For all references to Argentina, Kazakhstan and Malaysia, the OECD consider that the coverage is too small to ensure comparability. See Annex A4 of Volume I of the OECD report for further details.
