About this indicator

Source
International Monetary Fund
Frequency
Annual
Release
Published annually, referring to a specific date in the year.
What it is
Records the number of inhabitants in Bolivia and how it changes over time. Published by the National Institute of Statistics (INE), it is a structural indicator underpinning many economic and social ratios (GDP per capita, density, per-head rates, etc.).
How it's calculated
The INE derives the figure from population censuses and statistics on births, deaths and net migration, updating the population to an annual reference date. Bolivia still records relatively high population growth.
Market implications
Demographic trends shape potential growth, the labour market, consumption and public spending. In Bolivia, a young and growing population widens the labour force but presses on demand for services and jobs.
Limitations
It is a low-frequency figure; inter-census estimates are subject to revision once new censuses or better migration data arrive. Long gaps between censuses widen the uncertainty.
