OECD Main Economic Indicators - Online Sources and Definitions

MEI: Sources and Definitions provides a brief summary outline of current national practices for each country for which data are published in MEI. Information is published under four broad headings: definition, coverage, collection and calculation. This publication also outlines the conceptual basis of a range of methodological issues relevant to the presentation of statistics in MEI.

The aim of this book is to help the reader to better understand how to use economic statistics in general and OECD statistics in particular.
