The sources for military expenditure data are, in order of priority:

a) primary sources, that is, official data provided by national governments, either in their official publications or in response to questionnaires;

b) secondary sources which quote primary data; and

c) other secondary sources.

The deflator used for conversion from current to constant prices is the consumer price index (CPI) of the country concerned. This choice of deflator is linked to the purpose of the SIPRI data—that it should be an indicator of resource use on an opportunity-cost basis.

Average market exchange rates (MER) for the relevant year are used to convert local currency figures into US dollars, or in some cases official fixed exchange rates. For the constant dollar figures, this means the MER for the base year (currently 2023), while for the current dollar figures given for the most recent year’s data, this means the MER for that year (currently 2024). Market exchange rates are determined by the supply and demand of currencies used in international transactions, and as such do not always accurately reflect differences in price levels between countries. Fixed official exchange rates may be even less reflective of the relative purchasing power of a currency.
