This combination of databases is designed to facilitate your economic and financial data analysis needs on a global scale, and is tightly integrated into our powerful Economic Analysis application.

FactSet Economics featuring Global Insight includes the following databases:

Consensus Economics
Each month, Consensus Economics polls more than 600 economists around the world for their economic forecasts and views. These surveys cover estimates for the principal macroeconomic variables (including GDP growth, inflation, interest rates and exchange rates) in more than 70 countries across the world's major industrialized countries, as well as the emerging economies of Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Eastern Europe.

Eurostat
Eurostat is the official statistical office for the European Union, and the key source of statistics at the European level. The Eurostat database covers the macroeconomic, industrial and financial activities of Europe, with limited coverage of the U.S., Canada, and Japan.

The BCI database contains comprehensive, up-to-date U.S. Business Cycle Indicators as published by The Conference Board, a business-backed research organization. Series include the widely followed leading, lagging and coincident indicators of the U.S. economy, as well as the component series of these indicators.

U.S. Consumer Confidence Survey
The Consumer Confidence Survey is a monthly measure of the public's confidence in the health of the U.S. economy, as published by The Conference Board, a business-backed research organization. The survey measures overall consumer confidence, an index of the present situation, and an index of expectations; these indices are calculated for the entire United States, as well as across nine U.S. geographic regions.

The wide data coverage available in FactSet Economics gives users broader access to many of the online reports available in the Economic Analysis Reports tab.

For example, a detailed report on the Japanese economy could include quarterly GDP data from DRI International, daily financial market data from DRI Money Markets and Fixed Income, population data from the IMF, and aggregate OECD data from the OECD MEI database.
