|
Description
|
The Consumer price indices by population subgroups are "satellite" of the index of consumer prices (HICP): they are calculated using the same information base used for the HICP, the same basket and the same set of elementary indices of price, changing the structure of the weights used for their synthesis. The Consumer price indices by population subgroups have been calculated from January 2005, with reference base 2015=100 consistently with IPCA. In addition to the general index, are elaborated indexes of special aggregates. The dissemination of these indicators further expands the statistical information on the temporal dynamic of consumer prices, allowing an assessment of differential effects of inflation on specific subgroups identified on the basis of the level of total expenditure.
