Frankfurt am Main: The European Central Bank (ECB) has launched two tools to make its statistics more accessible. The ECBstatsApp provides quick and easy access to data published in the ECB’s Statistical Data Warehouse on tablets running on the iOS and Android operating systems.
The ECBstatsApp offers predefined data visualisations in four sections: key euro area indicators, government finance, exchange rates and prices. It also has a data explorer for navigating through these and other data by economic category. The latest available statistics can be viewed in tables, charts and maps, saved in specific data selections, or exported and shared in various formats.
One of its functionalities is the ability to share and integrate the visualisations into media websites, newspapers and social media. The webpage offers user-friendly and interactive access to economic data such as interest rates, competitiveness indicators and balance sheets of the banking industry. “Our statistics” is a website, developed in cooperation with the national central banks of the Eurosystem, to facilitate access to and use of core statistical breakdowns for the euro area as well as national statistics using visualisations.
