notes: Temporal Coverage: The data are annual, quarterly and monthly and go back to 1992.

notes: Timeliness: Monthly data are updated in the first full week of each month, typically by Wednesday.

notes: Geographic Coverage: Benchmark prices which are representative of the global market. They are determined by the largest import markets of a given commodity.

notes:
Methodology:
Prices are period averages in nominal U.S. dollars.

The current and the previous weights are provided in the comparison table on the website. The weights are calculated about every 5 years. The weights in the commodity basket reflect the structure of trade in 2014-2016. The choice of years reflects the desire of getting the most updated weights possible but still having sufficient data to improve accuracy. As part of the update, a thorough research into the basket of commodities was conducted to see whether the items included earlier are still representative in global commodities trade. The rule of thumb is that their share in total commodities trade has to be 1 percent or more of total commodities trade, in value terms.

Also, commodity descriptions, sources and weights are available as part of the dataset.

Price indices are based in 2016 (average of 2016 = 100). First individual commodity price indices are calculate in U.S. dollar and SDR terms, basing the price series in those currencies in 2016. Group indices are weighted averages of individual commodity price indices, with respective commodity weights derived from their relative trade values compared to the total world trade as reported in the UN Comtrade database.

Price indices are based in 2005 (average of 2005 = 100). First individual commodity price indices are calculate in U.S. dollar and SDR terms, basing the price series in those currencies in 2005. Group indices are weighted averages of individual commodity price indices, with respective commodity weights derived from their relative trade values compared to the total world trade as reported in the UN Comtrade database.

code: PCTOT

description: Country-specific commodity price indices, including export, import, and terms-of-trade indices. For each country, the change in the international price of up to 45 individual commodities is weighted using commodity-level trade data. See “Commodity Terms of Trade: A New Database,” by Bertrand Gruss and Suhaib Kebhaj, for further details.

to 1962 (historical).

notes: Timeliness: Data are updated in line with the WEO cycle.

Methodology: The country-specific indices are constructed using, alternatively, time-varying weights (using average trade flows over the preceding
three years) and fixed weights (based on average trade flows over several decades).
