| comment | Starting 1997 the HICP was introduced throughout the EU. The indices are designed to facilitate the comparison of consumer price trends internationally, as the methods and standards were harmonized accordingly. The HICP basket of commodities is adjusted continuously and yearly reweighted continuously and subject to ongoing methodological improvements. The disaggregates are divided into 12 commodity groups in line with the COICOP (Classification Of Individual Consumption by Purpose). |
