The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is available from a number of sources but the dates available vary.

Try

  • World Development Indicators (WDI) provides direct access to more than 700 development indicators with time series for 208 countries and 18 country groups from 1960 to 2022, where data are available. Look for "Inflation, consumer prices (annual %)" under the Economy & Growth section.
  • The PESTLE (political, economic, social, technological, legal and environmental) Insights published by MarketLine include the CPI and are available through Business Source Complete EBSCO. Keyword search for Italy AND PESTLE to retrieve this report.

  • FACTSET also has the CPI tables of different counties. Factset is available on Library computers and in the Trading Room. Launch FACTSET from Start menu, then look under My Markets => Economics => Reports.
  • The International Monetary Yearbook (which includes the CPI for Italy) is available in hardcopy from 1972-2018. It is shelved in the stacks. Each volume has 10 years worth of data that overlaps. This print resource is really only for back up in case the online sources above fail.
