SAGE Business Stats is the second in SAGE’s suite of resources that support business curricula and research and the third collection of data on the SAGE Stats platform.

The majority of the data series in Business Stats are created from proprietary sources of data, such as Woods & Poole, which includes projections through the year 2040.
