Definition of Revenue Transparency
The Revenue Watch Index is the first attempt to measure the information governments disclose about oil, gas and mining industries, including payments to those governments, contracts, regulations and related data. The research focuses on identifying publicly available information.

Publish information:
Governments, including SOCs, should publish regular, comprehensive and timely reports on the income they earn and on how they manage the oil, gas and mining sector.

Publish contracts:
Governments need to publish their contracts.

Civil and political rights:
Disclosure of information and legal provisions guaranteeing access to information do not automatically translate into accountability or control of corruption.
Governance mechanisms have to be enforced and monitored to be effective.
Parliaments, civil society and the press need respect to civil and political liberties to bring about accountability.

1. Countries that are rich in oil, gas and mineral reserves will always suffer from problems of corruption, recurrent crises, and high poverty levels as a result of the resource curse.
2. Mineral wealth is not a curse. Good governance, including transparency and accountability, as well as the right policies, can transform mineral resources into economic development and public goods.
