Venezuela

A nation of 28.5 million with oil and gas rents of 11.7% of GDP, forest across half its land and eight tenths of its power renewable, where the IMF projects growth of 5.0% this year.

Perfect Nations values what Venezuela owns and raises capital against it, through innovative financing for development (FfD) and super intelligence (SI).

01Assets · The cup · Sovereign Assets

Five assets no balance sheet counts.

  • 11.7%Of GDP from oil and gas rents, 2014

    The Oil and Gas

    Oil and gas already earn; the task is to turn the rent into assets that outlast it.

  • 53.4%Of the land under forest, 2024

    The Forest

    Standing forest that stores carbon and water, and can earn as it stands.

  • 81.7%Of electricity from renewable sources, 2021

Perfect Nations estimate, to be confirmed with Venezuela. Figures marked dated rest on surveys more than five years old; lenient measures are marked as such. The strict measures

Strict measures. Food: share not moderately or severely food insecure (FAO). Water: safely managed drinking water where measured; where it is not, basic water, marked as such. Shelter: the lower of safely managed sanitation and the share outside urban slums. Energy: the lower of electricity per person against 1,000 kWh and clean cooking; where electricity per person is not published, clean cooking. Education: the lower of children reading by the end of primary school and lower-secondary completion. Health: WHO service coverage index. Livelihood: share above the stricter of the national poverty line and the World Bank line for the nation’s income group (US$8.30 a day for high-income nations). Each figure links to its source.

Perfect Nations® · Letters to the NationsVenezuela

Dear Venezuela,

Your land holds oil and gas and forest across half its area, and eight tenths of your electricity is renewable.

Power and clean fuel reach almost every home. Yet by the strict international measure, 74% of you lack safely managed sanitation. Let the wealth of the oil fields be measured in the sanitation of every home.

“Let the wealth of the oil fields reach the sanitation of every home.”
