Source: OECD Global Pension Statistics via SDMX API; real-return series from OECD Pension Markets in Focus 2025 Table A.7. Russia uses MidLincoln legacy 2019 pension snapshot rows imported from `ml_pensiondata` because current OECD feed does not include Russia. New charts use `ml_pension_oecd_history`; legacy fund tables are retained from old MidLincoln static tables and should be treated as reference metadata.
