摘要

本文讨论和分析了价格统计转向覆盖更广泛的经济市场所带来的相关统计和经济问题,即自2008年初以来在埃及引入生产者价格指数(PPI)系列来取代批发价格指数(WPI)系列。本文讨论了埃及的价格指数差距以及构建新引入的生产者价格指数所采用的方法。本文提出了在电子商务和全球化背景下,PPI基本指标构建和统计质量、服务业覆盖范围有限、成本上升和承包指标不合理等几个有特色的问题。本文还建议为埃及的通货膨胀目标制设计一个核心通货膨胀指标。

PPI and Measuring Inflation in Business Transactions in Egypt
This paper discusses and analyzes selected pertinent statistical and economic questions raised by the shift in price statistics towards covering broader markets of the economy, namely introducing a Producers Price Index (PPI) series in place of the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) series in Egypt since the beginning of 2008. The paper discusses the price index gap in Egypt and the methodology employed in constructing the newly-introduced PPI. The paper proposes tackling several characterized problems concerning the construction of the elementary indices and quality of PPI statistics in light of e-commerce and globalization, existing limited coverage of service sectors, and improper indices for cost escalation and contracting. The paper also proposes devising a core inflation measure for inflation targeting in Egypt.
