Who is not in this ledger

This is an OECD dataset, and it can only contain what donors report to the OECD. These providers do not, so they appear nowhere above at any value:

  • China
  • Russia
  • India
  • Brazil
  • Saudi Arabia
  • South Africa

Their absence is a limit of the source, not a finding. China in particular is widely held to be a major bilateral financier across the continent; none of that activity is measured here. Covering it would need a separate dataset built for exactly that purpose, such as AidData's Global Chinese Development Finance release.
