Metrics

Ipea is a public institution responsible for research that supports and guides public policy development. The data generated from these studies is centralized in a public platform called Ipeadata.

The platform provides three main categories of data:

• macroeconomic: Economic and financial data for Brazil, available in yearly, monthly, and daily time series, using standardized monetary units.

• regional: Economic, demographic, and geographic data for states, cities, administrative regions, and catchement areas.

• social: Data and indicators related to income distribution, poverty, education, health, and social services, including breakdowns by gender, ethnicity, and other demographics.

For this project, only macroeconomic metrics are used.

• CDI (Certidicado de Depósito Interbancário / Interbank Deposit Certificate);

• Inflation Rate; (coming soon)
