Conclusion

Factors that may not contribute to the discrepancy :

Total number of companies Population Volume of trade

Factors that may contribute to the discrepancy : Nature of activities of companies ? Social factors ? Government regulations and policies ? Technology ? Crime and Hacking ? Other factors ?
