Background
As a result of the large and rapid economic developments of our time, it is necessary to have economic indicators to follow these developments and changes.
From this standpoint, many Index Number emerged, including:
- Consumer Price Index.
- Producer Price Index.
- Foreign Trade Index Number.
- Population and Development Index Numbers.
- ICT Development Price Index.
- Therefore, after the index numbers were part of General Price Administration, they were separated to become an independent general administration that reports directly to the President of CSO. It specializes in producing and compiling various index and inflation figures during the coming periods, in addition to the consumer price index that has produced since the year 2021 in Aden, which is considered one of the special indicators. It is used in economic and planning studies, in addition to reflecting the changes occurring in the structure of the productive and consumption sectors in society.
Methodology
Since 2021, the General Administration’s production of index numbers has been limited to compiling the price index, which was done by extracting consumer goods from 2014 Household Budget Survey, updating the weights, and introducing the population variable. The Asper method was used to compile the index.
Most important indicators
The most important indicators currently being produced:
- General consumer price index.
- Item index for consumer prices.
