About this Dataset

Aggregated And Disaggregated Municipal Government Finance

The aggregated municipal government finance database (Aggregated MUNIFI) provides a selection of indicators on expenditure, revenue, and debt for the entire municipal government sector in OECD and EU countries. It is complemented by disaggregated data, that is data for each municipality in a given country, which can be downloaded directly from the links below.

The time coverage ranges from 2010 to 2022 (based on data availability). This database has been produced in the context of the OECD/EU joint project Strengthening analytical frameworks and data on subnational government finance and public employment with the goal of collecting, standardising, and disseminating high-quality comparable data for local government finance and employment.

This data provides information to assess the capacities and decision-making power of municipalities and regions, whose role is essential in developing place-based policy. It also allows for within and cross-country comparisons, which sheds light on the disparities between subnational governments in terms of fulfilling their mandates and their ability to raise own-source revenue. You will find more information on subnational government responsibilities in the World Observatory on Subnational Government Finance and Investment.
