Key indicators include: - Consumer Price Index (CPI) and annual inflation rates - Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) conversion factors - Official exchange rates (LCU per USD) - GDP deflator and deflator-based inflation - Terms of trade indices - Residential property price indices and year-over-year changes (from BIS) - Price level ratios (PPP-to-exchange-rate) - Trade openness, merchandise trade volumes, and trade balance - Lending and deposit interest rates - Tariff rates, tax burden, government debt, and foreign reserves - GDP per capita (current USD and PPP) Sources: World Bank Open Data API (21 indicators), BIS Selected Property Prices (quarterly, annualized). Each row represents one country-year observation. Rows are included when at least 3 of 26 indicators have non-null values. Ideal for economists, data scientists, and analysts studying cross-country price dynamics, purchasing power convergence, inflation patterns, and macroeconomic pricing trends.
