FIW Trade Indicator

The Federal Ministry for Labour and Economy (BMAW) is publishing the first annual results for 2023 for Austria's foreign trade in goods on the basis of the new FIW Trade Indicator, which is currently being developed at the Institute for Advanced Studies on behalf of the BMAW and will be published on this website at the beginning of each month from April 2024.

“This is the kickoff for the publication of a new nowcasting model of the development of Austria's foreign trade, which we have been developing at IHS on behalf of the BMAW. From April onwards, monthly updates of the indicators will be published to support timely, evidence-based economic policy making and information for the interested public”, says project manager Martin Ertl.

The project team at IHS consists of Oscar Fernandez, Ines Fortin, Jaroslava Hlouskova, Helmut Hofer, Sebastian Koch, Robert Kunst and Adrian Wende.
