Remark:
Consumer price index, 2010=100:
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) aims to measure the average changes over time in the
general level of prices of goods and services purchased by the households for their
own final consumption.
The prices of a representative sample of goods and services are collected in monthly
surveys and the CPI is compiled and published monthly. It is usually not revised or
seasonally adjusted.
To some extent differences in compilation methods and in the coverage (of goods and
services, geographical area and population groups) may influence the international
comparability of the data.
A comprehensive and detailed explanation of CPI methodology is provided in
ILO/IMF/OECD/UNECE/Eurostat/The World Bank (2004): (Consumer Price Index Manual.
Theory and Practice. International Labour Office, Geneva).
Interest rates, short-term:
Short-Term Interest rates are returns (rates or yield) on terms of 3 months duration.
3-month interest rate is a representative short-term interest rate series for the
domestic money market.
Monthly data for the short-term (3-month) rates and yields are averages of daily
figures.
Interest rates, long-term:
Long-Term Interest rates refer to the yields on secondary market of government bonds
with maturities of close to 10 years.
Monthly data are averages of daily figures.
Producer price index, 2010=100:
The Producer Price Index (PPI) aims to measure the average changes over time in the
general level of prices of goods received by the domestic producers for their output
(æbasic pricesÆ). PPI is compiled monthly. It is usually not revised and not
seasonally adjusted.
