Why reports have a shelf life
AfricaQore reports are generated from live World Bank, IMF and partner feeds. Because source data is updated throughout the year, each report is stamped with a generation date and an expiry date. This prevents stale macro assumptions from being reused in live decisions months later. Institutional plans keep reports indefinitely for compliance and archival research; Professional and Explorer reports refresh on shorter cycles.

Frequently asked questions
Why do reports expire?
Macroeconomic and market data change constantly. Expiry ensures that old reports are not reused for live decisions after their underlying data becomes stale. Explorer reports expire after 30 days; Professional reports after 180 days. Institutional reports do not expire so firms can build long-term archives.
Can I regenerate an expired report?
Yes. As long as you have an active plan and remaining report quota, you can regenerate any report with the latest live data.
Do all plans use the same data sources?
Yes. Every plan reads from the same live public sources — World Bank, IMF, AfDB, UN, ILO, FAO and openAFRICA. The difference is depth of history, analytical tools, export formats and report volume.
What happens when I upgrade?
Your new plan takes effect immediately and any remaining credits from the current billing period are preserved. Downgrades keep existing credits until the period ends.
