Research Areas

The objective of this proposal is to expand the work plan defined in the 2021 project developed for AVE on the design and creation of a system of indicators to regularly monitor the activity of the Valencian economy. The system was made up of 61 indicators that were grouped into different fields, allowing to compare the Valencian Region on a national level, with some indicators also offering a European comparison.

This year’s collaboration with AVE has a double objective. On the one hand, to provide updated information on a regular basis and, on the other hand, to have a more detailed analysis of the main economic changes reflected by the indicators. In this sense, the collaboration will include the following products:

• System of conjunctural indicators with monthly periodicity. A group of 25 indicators are selected and updated every month and will be grouped into the main thematic areas: production, labor market, foreign sector, activity sectors, competitiveness, prices, business demographics. A summary will be offered with a comparison of the Valencian Community and Spain.
• System of economic indicators with quarterly periodicity. It will consist of 61 indicators grouped in the same areas as in the previous collaboration: production, labor market, foreign sector, economic sectors, productivity/competitiveness, prices, business demographics, public finances, technological indicators/digitization, among others. In addition to a summary sheet with information for each indicator for a broad period and for all the regions.
• Brief quarterly economic report to highlight the main messages of the evolution of the economy of the Valencian Community in the national context.
