    How the figures are checked
    The platform carries the official data as published, with no assumed estimates.Read more

    The only calculations are percentages, year-on-year rates, the totalling of sector spending, and large-enterprise expenses worked out by subtracting small and medium enterprises from the grand total. Every record is checked automatically on each refresh, and the refresh stops if a total leaves its range:

    • ✗تطابق إيرادات القطاعات في منصة DataSaudi مع نشرات الهيئة لعام 2024 (0 من 17 قطاعاً).
    • ✗اتساق المعادلة المحاسبية: النفقات التشغيلية + تعويضات المشتغلين + فائض التشغيل = الإيرادات التشغيلية في 234 من 313 نشاطاً.
    • ✓إجمالي مبيعات نقاط البيع لشهر سبتمبر 2026 (61.2 مليار ريال) ضمن المدى المنشور.
    • ✓إجمالي الائتمان المصرفي (3.50 تريليون ريال) ضمن المدى المنشور، مع تفادي الازدواج المحاسبي لصف «المجموع».

    The search maps everyday words to the national economic activity classification (ISIC4) used by GASTAT, and shows the result under its official name.

    The data is pulled automatically from DataSaudi and the GASTAT bulletins, and every release is kept in the Riyal Business archive.
