How the ratio is calculated
Fine-metal tonnes x 32,150.7465686 / 8,967,408 residents = fine troy ounces per resident. Display rounding never changes the underlying rank.
What is sourced and estimated
No globally comparable official silver reserve observation is asserted.
Fund, bullion and ornamental components are country-attributed research estimates.
Important context
Vaulting and fund evidence strengthens the estimate, but not beneficial-owner attribution.
Per-capita values are comparison ratios and are not investment advice or estimates of what a typical resident personally owns.
