Analysis
The most recent figure for use of interpolation and extrapolation on original gini coefficient data in Seychelles is 27,574, measured in 2017. That is the highest value across all 15 years on record.
That represents a change of up 81.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, use of interpolation and extrapolation on original gini coefficient data in Seychelles peaked at 27,574 in 2017 and was at its lowest, 1,579, in 1850.
That places Seychelles 35th out of 160 countries with data for 2017, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
