Finding accurate and update economic statistics can be a considerable challenge. Multiple different intergovernmental agencies, national governments and analysts continuously update figures that are calculated and presented in a multitude of different ways.
These include Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment, inflation, interest rates, currency exchange rates, trade figures, money, supply and pricing for everything from houses to uranium. In all, over 1,000 economic indicators exist for the roughly 250 countries and geographic, economic or political country blocs that exist. These indicators are tracked on an annual, quarterly or monthly basis for the most part, although some indicators such as stock market valuations and currency exchange rates fluctuate continuously during market opening times.
This is the second update to our beta service, in which we have taken the latest available data from all sources, including the first half 2009 update of WEO data from the IMF. We have consolidated data series display for country economic indicators, to show on one consolidated page for that country/ indicator pairing, for all years of data. We have also expanded the range of indicators on display.
Most official economic statistics are compiled at a national level. For example, GDP and employment data is based government tax receipts, inflation is calculated by analyzing changes in the prices of baskets of goods at either wholesale or retail prices, interest rates, exchange rates and money supply are calculated by central banks, and trade figures are normally logged by customs and excise.
These figures are normally calculated in local currency. Intergovernmental agencies then seek to reconcile statistics into comparable datasets, usually by looking to ensure that the same calculation methodology has been used, and converting monetary figures into US $ figures as the de facto world currency, either using current or nominal exchange rates, or based on purchasing power parity. EconomyWatch.com seeks to find the most authoritative data source for each country or indicator.
You use this data by finding country, economic indicator or year that you are interested in, and then browse through the data from there. We have raw numerical data as well as some basic textual analysis and supporting notes.
