PRICES : EC Annual inflation rate remains at 3.5% in March.
Between February and March the average inflation rate for the EC as measured by the CPI for EUR-12
remained unchanged at a level of 3.5%, thus showing near stability of inflation for the Community as a
whole over four consecutive months: December 3.6%, January 3.6%, February 3.5%, March 3.5%.
In ascending order the current annual inflation rates and the corresponding figures a year ago for the
individual Member States are as follows:

At present 10 of the 12 Member States have annual inflation rates below 5% ; the rates for the applicant
Member States are also below 5% : Norway 2.5% , Finland 2.7%, Austria 3.9%, Sweden 4.9% .
The corresponding figures for the United States and Japan are 3.1% and 1.5% .
The monthly index for EUR 12 rose by 0.4% between February and March.
Monthly increases were relatively low in nearly all member States : 0.2% in Belgium, Denmark and Italy,
0.3% in Germany and Luxembourg, 0.4% in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Spain and Portugal,
0.5% in France.
The only exception was Greece where as a result of the introduction of new items after the winter sales
prices for clothing and footwear rose by 17.5% and those for durable goods by 7.5%. Together with lesser
increases for a large range of other goods and services this led to a sharp rise in the overall index of 3.7%
between February and March.

EXPLANATORY NOTES
METHODOLOGY
The consumer price indices given here are the national indices which have different names in
each country. As far as trends are concerned, the general index published by EUROSTAT always
corresponds to the general index published by the country. The component items of this general
index are groups of national indices aggregated according to a harmonized classification
conforming to the ESA (European System of Integrated Economic Accounts). For these groups,
the price trends correspond to the trends noted by the national indices for the same classification
field. The field covered by the general index varies according to country; as regards the
population concerned (specific income bracket, certain socio-professional categories or total
households), the geographical areas used (capital, urban areas, country as a whole, etc.) or
differences in treatments of expenditure on rent, health care, etc... Finally, there is no uniform
method for seasonal adjustements. A fixed system is used in some countries, whereas in others a
chain system is used (variable weightings). The reference years used at national level for the
indices vary according to country. For ease of comparison, EUROSTAT has chosen 1985 as the
common year for the presentation of these indices.
THE CALCULATION
O F
THE EUR-12 INDEX
The EUR-12 index as calculated by EUROSTAT is a weighted average of national price indices.
The weight used is the proportion of each country in the final consumption of households for
EUR-12. The values of this consumption in national currency are converted into purchasing
power standard (PPS); for this prupose the purchasing power parities of the G.D.P. are used. Up
to 1987 purchasing power parities are those which result from the 1980 enquiry, from 1988
onwards they are those from the 1985 enquiry. The index calculated is a chain index of the
"Laspeyres" type with weights changing each year. However, the weights are lagged by three
years since the national accounts data needed become avalable only after three years. For
example: the weights used for 1991 are those of 1988, for 1990 those of 1987. Moreover,
national accounts data are often revised leading to revisions of the consumption weights. In order
to avoid continuous modifications in the EUR-12 index for previous periods, EUROSTAT has
decided to "freeze" the weights which are used. Thus the EUR-12 index will not be affected by
revisions of the national accounts. However when Member States carry out major revisions in the
price series for past years, EUR-12 data will be calculated using these new series.
