The Nobel Prize in economics has been awarded to 79 people since the foundation of the Swedish Riksbank in Memory of Alfred Nobel in 1969. It should be noted that a Nobel Prize can be awarded to several participants in a research team. In such cases, all winners of a research group have been counted, since every one of them is a Nobel Laureate. In general, the award of a Nobel prize goes to a group of no more than three researchers. In exceptional cases it may occur, that more than one research achievement in a specific field is honored with a Nobel Prize in one year. However, this is the exception. In such a case, the prize money is divided. These winners are also referred to as "Nobel Laureate".
The number of laureates in this statistic may differ from other sources because of geographical classification.
