Definition 1
COICOP is part of a set of classifications of the functions of expenditure, also known as "functional" classifications and which have formed part of the System of National Accounts (SNA) since 1968. "Functional" classifications are designed to classify certain transactions of producers and of three institutional sectors, namely household, general government and non-profit institutions serving households. They are described as "functional" classifications because they identify the "functions" - in the sense of "purposes" or "objectives" - for which these groups of transactors engage in certain transactions. The classifications concerned are: Classification of individual consumption by purpose (COICOP), Classification of the functions of government (COFOG), Classification of the purposes of non-profit institutions serving households (COPNI) and Classification of outlays of producers by purpose (COPP).

Finally, the sub-index classification used for the HICPs has been revised in line with the new version of the international Classification of Individual Consumption by Purpose (COICOP). Except for differences due to rounding, this revision has had no impact on the development of the all-item HICPs since 1995.
