Know what the data means.

Transparent by design: each statistic retains its source, unit, definition and publication status. Data gaps are never filled with invented values.

The methodology matters.

Statistics generally describe the immediate counterparty, not the ultimate beneficiary. Holdings (positions) are not the same thing as transactions. A country-to-country line represents a source-reported relation, not a traced journey of money.
