What is Revenue, excluding grants (% of GDP)?

Revenue, excluding grants (% of GDP), measured in %, measures the total economic output of North America.

In North America, the statistical agency compiles GDP data through comprehensive surveys of businesses, government records, and household expenditure patterns.
