By Jay Lynch
Summary
September 2019 -- Data Buffet now carries the detailed consumer price index for Bangladesh (nine new monthly series from 1993, nine defunct 2006 to 2012).
Detail

Active subset properties:

  • Classification: Not stated, but equivalent to aggregates over the 12 COICOP expenditure categories
  • Measurement: Fixed-base index relative to fiscal year 2006 (Index FY 2006=100)
  • Adjustments: Not seasonally adjusted (NSA)
  • Native frequency: Monthly
  • Start date: As early as 1993m7

We have also created a seasonally adjusted supplement to the general index.

Defunct subset properties:

  • Archive: Denoted with "_95" specifier
  • Measurements: Fixed-base index relative to fiscal year 1996 (Index FY 1996=100)
  • Adjustment: Not seasonally adjusted (NSA)
  • Native frequency: Monthly
  • Data range: 2006m12 to 2012m9

The series reside in the Bangladesh historical catalog and include, for example:

  CPITTUM.IBGD = Consumer price index: General index, (Index FY 2006=100, NSA)
  CPICLF_95UM.IBGD = [DISCONTINUED] Consumer Price Index: Clothing and Footwear, (Index FY 1996=100, 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.
