Data sources & definitions

Consumer price index: Dec 1976–Dec 2025

Core inflation removes selected volatile items; national exclusions differ. Excluding food and energy; national CPI, 2015=100; COICOP 2018. Latest published vintage. Annual views use complete-year averages; quarterly views use complete-quarter averages or the source’s native quarterly observation. The current partial period stays out of these averages. Actual coverage is shown beneath every chart.

Reading the inflation and price data

Read the Switzerland inflation figures in two passes. First compare headline inflation with the available core measure over the same observation period. Headline covers the broad consumer basket; core excludes selected components under the source's definition. A difference between them describes the composition of price changes. It does not, on its own, establish which prices will move next.

The consumer-price index answers a different question from the inflation rate. Inflation describes how quickly prices change; the index tracks the price level. Lower positive inflation therefore means prices are rising more slowly, rather than returning to their earlier level. In a rebased chart, 100 is the starting point and 150 represents a price level 50% above that starting point.

Use the long annual view to compare cycles and the quarterly view to examine more recent changes where those histories are available. Complete annual and quarterly averages differ from the latest monthly reading. Partial periods are excluded from those averages, and missing observations are left missing. The table beneath each chart retains the plotted dates and values.

Check the coverage and source notes before comparing countries or categories. Reference bases, exclusions and publication frequencies can differ. The page snapshot date identifies this published collection; each observation keeps its own period. Explore the price charts and available basket categories on this page before continuing into employment and the wider economy.

Employment & unemployment

Unemployment is a share of the labour force. Employment / population is a share of everyone aged 15 and older, including people outside the labour force.

Employed / population: Dec 2006–Dec 2025

Unemployment counts people without work who are available and seeking work, as a share of the labour force. It is not 100% minus the employment / population ratio. National age definitions differ. Monthly or quarterly official figures are used where available; the annual fallback is an ILO modelled estimate via World Bank. Each chart retains its observation dates.

Make Sense of the Data

What does ages 15 and older mean?

The employed / population ratio includes everyone aged 15 and older in its denominator, including students, retirees and others outside the labour force. The unemployment rate uses the labour force instead: people working or available and seeking work. It is a different measure, not 100% minus the employment ratio.

Does lower inflation mean prices are falling?

No. Lower positive inflation means the consumer basket is getting more expensive more slowly. A falling price level would require negative inflation. The price-index chart shows the cumulative change, separately from the headline and core inflation rates.

What does core inflation exclude?

Core measures remove selected volatile components. National definitions differ: US core CPI excludes food and energy; euro-area core HICP also excludes alcohol and tobacco. The source definition is shown with the chart.

How are annual and quarterly histories calculated?

Monthly price and labour observations are averaged only when every month of the year or quarter is available. Native quarterly observations remain quarterly. Partial periods and missing observations are not filled. Fifty years is the maximum view, not a claim that every series has fifty years of coverage.

What does GDP growth show?

Real GDP growth measures changes in economic output after adjusting for prices. Charts use the latest published estimates. Annualized quarterly growth expresses a quarter’s change as an annual pace; year-over-year growth compares output with the same quarter a year earlier.

What is government debt-to-GDP?

It compares general-government gross debt with annual economic output. Gross debt does not subtract financial assets. Historical IMF values can include staff estimates; current and future years are excluded. Definitions differ between countries, and debt alone does not measure default risk.
