Where this data comes from

Every series is loaded automatically from official releases. Values are kept exactly as published; only the structure is normalised — unit, frequency and reference period.

  • Eurostat

    The statistical office of the European Union: GDP, HICP, industrial production, retail trade, labour, construction, government debt and the balance of payments — harmonised so member states can be compared directly.

  • ECB Data Portal

    The European Central Bank: policy rates, €STR, Euribor, the yield curve, money supply, credit, the Eurosystem balance sheet and official reference exchange rates.

  • S&P Global / HCOB

    Euro area PMI indices. PMI history is only licensed under subscription, so the PMI table here records periods from the point we began collecting; the leading indicator with history back to 1980 is the European Commission’s sentiment survey suite.
