Derived data

Short presentation of data items

The derived_data database contains data calculated by the ECB related to CPI, HICP, real GDP, population, unit labour costs, labour productivity, industrial production, balance of payments, government finance statistics, monetary aggregates and money gap, long-term and short-term interest rates, effective exchange rates, oil prices, deflators, earnings, negotiated wages and job vacancy rates.

Types of data source

The underlying data are taken from the bis, sts, stp, sad, ecb, icp, fmdb, esa95, fiscal_ncb and ameco databases. The database includes time series at national level for the 27 EU Member States and, for some subsets of data, time series for the aggregates: euro area (current composition, Euro area 11, Euro area 12, Euro area 13 and Euro area 15).

Periodicity

Business, Daily, Monthly, Quarterly and Annual

Timeliness

Automatically as soon as one of the underlying databases is updated.

Update frequency

The underlying data are taken from the bis, sts, stp, sad, ecb, icp, fmdb, esa95, fiscal_ncb and ameco databases. As soon as one of these databases is updated, the relevant derived data series are automatically updated.

ECB dataset naming convention

The Derived Data dataset has five mandatory dimensions separated by one dot; the frequency, the country, the economic concept, the transformation and the suffix. The key family identifier indicates the dataset and is always set before the five dimensions

For example: DD.A.I4.POPE.LEV.4D

Position	Dimension	Lenght	Example	Comments
1-2	The key family identifier	2	DD	always DD
4	Frequency	1	A	A: annual; Q: quarerly; M: monthly; D:daily
7-8	Reference area	2	I4	I4: Euro area 15 (fixed composition)
variable	Derived data economic concept	up to 12	POPE	POPE: Population (Eurostat estimates)
variable	Derived data transformation	up to 12	LEV	LEV: Level
variable	Derived data suffix	up to 12	4D	4D: European Commission - Eurostat
