Databases
For its scientific and analytical work (statistics, econometrics, applied modelling), CEPII gathers and harmonizes data from various sources (international organizations or national sources). These databases make it possible to establish stylized facts about the world economy and to produce indicators and statistical measures on subjects related to the world economy.
These data, covering all the countries of the world, can be downloaded free of charge (after registration; with the exception of the CHELEM database) from this webpage and are regularly updated (depending on the availability of source data, or to follow changes in classifications...). Whenever necessary, the user license is indicated at the bottom of the presentation webpage of each database.
In addition, CEPII offers Country Profiles, an interactive visualization that presents the insertion of 80 economies in world trade through seven dedicated sections.
