About Statistics Publications & Documents Information by Country

Quarterly. Latest diskette: December 2003.

The International Trade and Competitiveness Indicators statistical series are designed for use in a wide range of empirical analyses related to the international trade performance of OECD Member countries. The set of diskettes includes principal series for external trade classified by four broad SITC commodity groups (basic materials, food, fuels and manufactures) in nominal and constant-price value terms, along with corresponding price deflators, market shares and competitiveness indicators. These statistics are available in a consistent quarterly form for most OECD countries. The length of individual series is determined by the availability of individual country source information, but in general all series are available from 1975 onwards.
