In the area of macroeconomic real-time data, the Bundesbank provides real-time data sets of macroeconomic indicators (subject to revision), which can be displayed and downloaded. The Bundesbank's real-time database is extended on a regular basis.
The indicator detail view provides information on the indicator key and the available vintages. Additionally, a direct download can be selected, or the indicator can be added to the data basket.
The observation period and vintages can be easily adjusted via a date selection; the selection also affects the graph and the table of values.
