Economic Statistics Search

What is the Economic Statistics Search tool?

A tool that finds official economic statistics from the Bank of Korea's Economic Statistics System (ECOS), the U.S. Federal Reserve's economic data (FRED), World Bank Indicators, OECD SDMX, and Eurostat.

You can search World Bank Indicators for GDP, population, prices, trade, debt, poverty, industry, and more; OECD SDMX for GDP, CPI, employment, productivity, leading indicators, trade, and more; and Eurostat for data on GDP, CPI, employment, industry, trade, population, and more across European countries.

It covers indicators such as base rates, exchange rates, price indices (CPI·PPI), GDP, unemployment, money supply (M1·M2), government bond yields, balance of payments, trade figures, and stock indices (KOSPI·S&P 500).

You can check just the latest value, or get the historical time series along with it.

When can you use it?

The Economic Statistics Search tool is especially useful in these situations.

• When you want to check the latest figure for a key indicator like rates, FX, or prices
• When you want to see how an indicator has moved over a given period
• When you want to compare Korean and U.S. indicators side by side over the same period
• When you need official statistics to cite in a report or presentation

For example, you can naturally ask "Show Korea's base rate trend over the past three years", "Compare US CPI and the unemployment rate over the same period", or "Summarize the monthly USD/KRW exchange rate this year". The AI will then use this tool to generate the result.

How to use it

Usage is simple. Just enter your request naturally in the input box like this.

[Country · region] + [Indicator] + [Period] + [Check · compare expression]

Here are some examples:

• Latest figure: "What's Korea's base rate right now?"
• Trend over time: "Show Korea's base rate trend over the past three years"
• Comparing indicators: "Compare US CPI and the unemployment rate over the same period"
• Monthly movement: "Summarize the monthly USD/KRW exchange rate this year"

Practical request checklist

For a stronger Economic Statistics Search request, state the goal, input, scope, and output format together. Adding one more layer of constraints beyond the basic examples reduces follow-up questions and makes the result easier to use.

• Give the exact name, keywords, or research question, including useful synonyms.
• Set the country, institution or source, date range, freshness requirement, and exclusions.
• Ask for the links, publication dates, citations, comparison table, or summary you need.

Review, save, and reuse the result

Treat the Economic Statistics Search result as a draft or a snapshot taken at query time. Check the following before carrying it into the next task.

• Open the primary source and confirm that it supports the stated claim and date.
• For time-sensitive topics, record the as-of date and cross-check more than one source.
• Use legal, medical, and investment results for research; confirm consequential decisions with a qualified professional.
