Avaliação Económica Regional de Portugal 2026 · source to confirmThis is a data observatory on Portugal. It measures the country and shows where each measurement came from.
No figure appears here without a row in the ledger: the value exactly as published, the source, the document, the access date and, when it is calculated, the arithmetic spelled out. A figure without that row fails the build.

Method, caveats and provenance
What the figure means
The index compares each territory’s GDP per capita, measured in purchasing power standards, with the EU-27 average. A value below the average means less purchasing power per person; a value above it, more.
Caveat
The 2024 value for Portugal is provisional.
Distances
The point differences the rule draws are calculated from the published values. They are arithmetic on those values, not published values themselves — and each has its own ledger row, with the sum spelled out.
The data behind this rule
One row per region placed on the rule: the value exactly as published, the year it refers to, the unit, the study and the id of the ledger row. The file is generated from the ledger at every build — it is not a copy kept on the side.
