Revenue, excluding grants (% of GDP) (%)

Government revenue (% of GDP) is an indicator calculated by dividing government income from taxes and public bonds by GDP, showing the fiscal scale of a nation. The higher this ratio, the more funds the government collects from the domestic economy, and the more abundant financial resources are available for public services and social security. Nordic advanced countries tend to have high ratios and support extensive welfare systems. Conversely, developing countries have low ratios with weak tax bases, resulting in limited public investment. The ratio varies significantly depending on each country's economic development stage and political system, and serves as an important indicator for evaluating fiscal soundness and policy flexibility.
