Consumer Inflation Expectations API

What households in each economy expect for prices and for the wider economy — the OECD consumer surveys as an API, live, no key. Every month consumers are asked whether they expect prices to rise faster or slower over the year ahead, and whether they think the general economic situation will improve or worsen. The OECD harmonises the answers into balances — the share answering up/better minus the share answering down/worse, on a scale around zero. Consumer inflation expectations are one of the most closely watched soft indicators in central banking: if households start expecting higher inflation, they bring forward purchases and demand higher wages, which can make inflation self-fulfilling, so policymakers track whether expectations stay anchored. The economic-situation balance is the household read on where the economy is heading, and it leads consumer spending. The inflation endpoint ranks every economy by its consumer inflation-expectations balance — where households most expect prices to climb. The economy endpoint ranks by the economic-situation outlook. The country endpoint gives one economy's inflation and economic-situation balances side by side with the month-on-month change. Each reading carries its own month and discontinued series are excluded, so the board is genuinely current. The consumer-survey / inflation-expectations cut — distinct from the composite Business & Consumer Confidence board (which gives only the headline confidence index, not the inflation-expectations component), the manufacturing business-survey board, the realised-inflation feeds, and the generic multi-provider data aggregator. Balances are in percentage points; figures are monthly.

OECD Economic Indicators API
Key macroeconomic indicators for the 38 OECD member countries, sourced from the official OECD SDMX data service. Pull the harmonised unemployment rate, the consumer price index and the long-term (10-year government bond) interest rate for any member country, look up a single indicator for one country, or read a full country snapshot with all indicators at once. Every value carries the indicator label, its unit and the exact period it refers to, and always resolves to the latest published observation — no date juggling. Coverage spans Australia to the United States, with the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, France and every other OECD member in between. Built for dashboards, macro research and currency or rates models that need authoritative, comparable cross-country economic data. Distinct from market and FX feeds: this surfaces official OECD statistics.

Net International Investment Position API
The stock of external wealth — how much each economy owns abroad versus how much the rest of the world owns of it, live from the OECD's official balance-of-payments statistics, no key. Where the current account is the yearly flow of external lending or borrowing, the net international investment position (Net IIP) is the accumulated stock those flows pile up into: a country running persistent surpluses builds a large positive Net IIP and becomes a net creditor to the world (Norway, Japan, Germany, Switzerland), while persistent deficits build a large negative one — a net debtor, like the United States. The Net IIP is one of the deepest gauges of external sustainability and a structural anchor for a currency: a big positive position earns net income on foreign assets and is a buffer in a crisis, while a large negative one leaves a currency exposed to the willingness of foreigners to keep funding it. The board endpoint ranks economies by their Net IIP as a share of GDP — the size-neutral cross-country screen — from biggest net creditors to biggest net debtors. The gross endpoint ranks by gross external assets as a share of GDP, a measure of financial openness and international integration where small financial hubs tower with foreign assets worth multiples of GDP. The country endpoint gives one economy's full external balance sheet: the Net IIP in dollars and as a share of GDP, its gross foreign assets and liabilities, and the net position broken down by function — direct investment, portfolio investment, other investment and reserve assets, which sum to the net position — with a plain-language read. Each reading carries its own quarter and discontinued series are filtered out. This is the external-stock / net-foreign-wealth cut — the companion to, and distinct from, the current-account balance (the yearly flow, not the accumulated stock), trade growth, and the gross-government-debt and debt-service feeds (public-sector domestic debt, not the whole economy's external position). Positions are in billions of US dollars and percent of GDP; figures are quarterly end-of-period stocks.

Current Account Balance API
Whether each economy earns more from the rest of the world than it spends — the current-account balance, live from the OECD's official balance-of-payments statistics, no key. The current account is the single most important external-balance number in macro: it nets a country's trade in goods and services, its cross-border investment income, and its transfers into one figure. A surplus means the economy is a net lender to the world and is accumulating foreign claims; a deficit means it is a net borrower, financing its spending with foreign capital. Persistent current-account positions are one of the deepest drivers of exchange rates — surplus currencies (the yen, the euro-area core, the Nordics) tend to be structurally supported, while large-deficit currencies depend on continued capital inflows and are vulnerable when risk appetite turns. The board endpoint ranks economies by their current-account balance as a share of GDP — the size-neutral cross-country screen — from biggest surpluses to biggest deficits. The goods endpoint ranks by the merchandise (goods) trade balance as a share of GDP, separating the trade story from services and income. The country endpoint gives one economy's full external decomposition: the headline balance as a share of GDP, the goods / services / primary-income / secondary-income balances in US dollars (which sum exactly to the current account) and as shares of GDP, the six-quarter trend, and a plain-language read of whether the position is improving or deteriorating and what drives it. Each reading carries its own quarter and discontinued series are filtered out. This is the external-balance / balance-of-payments cut — distinct from trade growth (real export and import growth rates, the flow of volumes, not the net balance), and from the inflation, labour-cost and confidence feeds. The headline is percent of GDP; the decomposition is in billions of US dollars per quarter and percent of GDP; figures are quarterly, seasonally adjusted.

CPI Inflation Rate API
The headline consumer-price inflation print for every major economy, broken into its core and its drivers, live from the OECD's official price statistics — no key. Consumer-price inflation is the single most-watched macro number on earth: the gauge every central bank targets, the thing that sets the real value of wages, debts and savings, and a number whose surprises move bonds, currencies and equities within seconds. This API serves the year-on-year national CPI the way it is actually reported, for ~50 economies — and crucially it does not stop at the headline. For each economy it also serves the core rate (all items excluding food and energy, the measure policymakers really steer by), plus the food, energy and services rates themselves. That decomposition tells you whether a reading is a temporary food/energy shock or a stickier, demand-driven core problem: headline above core means volatile food/energy are pushing prices up; headline below core means they are dragging the print down while underlying inflation stays hot. The board endpoint ranks economies by headline inflation with core alongside; core ranks by the core rate; country gives one economy's full breakdown with the headline-vs-core read. Each reading carries its own month and discontinued series are filtered out, so the board is genuinely current. This is the realised-inflation cut — distinct from the inflation calculator (arithmetic from a rate you supply, not live data), from consumer inflation expectations (a survey of what households think prices will do, not what they did), and from unit labour costs and wages. Rates are percent year-on-year; figures are monthly.
