Download the World Income Inequality Database from the UN's University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) which is considered the largest database of GINI coefficients.

  • Click Browse by Subject to expand.
  • Next, drill down through International - World Bank - World Development Indicators, and select Poverty.
  • Select one or more countries, then select Gini Index from the list of indicators.


Take a look at World Development Indicators from the World Bank for the GINI Index for selected countries and years.

Go to Gini Index - Human Development Report.
