Data Revision: U.K. - RSI - Re-referenced to 2016
Thursday, 19 Jul 2018 09:14 ET
By Victoria Donu
Summary
July 2018 -- For the detailed retail sales index, the source has advanced the reference year for chained volume measures from 2015 to 2016 (1,401 quarterly and annual series impacted). This is a routine annual process.
Detail

In response, we have revised existing series and updated their unit-descriptor metadata where necessary. Properties are otherwise unchanged (see related article).

The series reside in the historical catalog (United Kingdom » Consumer » Retail Sales » Detailed ONS Indicators) and include, for example:

  • ONSN3DSM.IGBR = Implied Deflator Index: Non-store retailing, (Index 2016=100, NSA)
  • ONSJO62Q.IGBR = Retail Sales Index: Retail of sports equipment; games and toys - All Business, (Vol. Index 2016=100, SA)
  • ONSEAJFA.IGBR = Predominantly food stores, (Vol. % Y/Y, NSA)

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
