Changes in January 2019

From January 2019 onwards, turnover indices will be expressed with reference year 2015=100.

Indices from 2012 onwards have been aggregated using the weighting scheme of 2015.

Indices for the years prior to 2012 have been expressed with reference year 2015=100 with no modification of the weighthing scheme (base year = 2010).

Indices for 2018 have also been recalculated based on microdata.

Jdemetra+ replaces Demetra 2.2 for seasonal and working day adjustments.

These changes account for the revisions that can be observed in series compared to previously published series.
