Other notes: | "Data were derived from the G-FINDER survey and thus only include expenditures on health research and development of new products for neglected diseases, expenditures on other health research is not included in the stated amount. The World Bank conducts a substantial amount of policy and systems research each year. In the ""FY14 World Bank Budget"" published on August 9, 2013, on page 16, it lists a spending of 715.6 million US dollar for the development of knowledge products for clients, the public good or internal use. We found no disaggregated numbers for such spending in the area of health. Therefore, the G-FINDER amount was included, which does not include expenditures on health policy and systems research. " |
