FocusEconomics: Economic Forecasts from the World's Leading Economists

FocusEconomics provides economic intelligence for major economies in Asia, Europe and the Americas. Our economists closely monitor economic developments in more than 60 economies and constantly analyze the latest economic trends, such as economic growth, inflation, interest rates and exchange rates. To assess the economic outlook of a country, FocusEconomics relies on a network of the world’s leading economists.

Each month, we poll the most renowned economists to obtain their view of the future. Next to showing the individual forecasts for each of the major indicators, we also provide an average, the so-called Consensus. These forecasts and our in-house analysis are condensed into several regional reports but are also available on a country-by-country basis. We send out our reports on the day of publishing by email in PDF format and also provide Excel spreadsheet support.

Currently, FocusEconomics publishes the following reports:
