OECD Composite Leading Indicators
News Release
Composite Leading Indicators continue to signal
deep slowdown in OECD area
OECD composite leading indicators (CLIs) for February 2009 continue to point to a deep slowdown for all the
major seven economies. Although some tentative signs of improvement in the rate of deterioration in the
outlook are appearing in some countries, noticeably Italy, France and in some of the smaller OECD countries,
the emphasis on ‘tentative’ cannot be overstated. The picture for all countries remains weak with the outlook
in the United States, Canada, Japan and the major non-OECD member economies in particular, further
deteriorating since last month.
The CLI for the OECD area decreased by 0.6 point in February 2009 and was 9.7 points lower than in
February 2008. The CLI for the United States fell by 1.1 point in February and was 11.8 points lower than a
year ago. The Euro area’s CLI decreased by 0.2 point in February and stood 8.2 points lower than a year
ago. In February, the CLI for Japan decreased by 1.5 point, and was 11.2 points lower than a year ago.
The CLI for the United Kingdom fell by 0.2 point in February 2009 and was 6.6 points lower than a year
ago. The CLI for Canada decreased by 1.2 point in February and was 10.6 points lower than a year ago. For
France, the CLI increased by 0.1 point in February but was 4.7 points lower than a year ago. The CLI for
Germany fell by 0.3 point in February and was 12.9 points lower than a year ago. For Italy, the CLI
increased by 0.4 point in February but stood 4.1 points lower than a year ago.
The CLI for China decreased 0.7 point in February 2009 and was 12.5 points lower than a year ago. The CLI
for India fell by 0.8 point in February 2009 and was 10.1 points lower than in February 2008. The CLI for
Russia decreased by 1.9 points in February and was 19.7 points lower than a year ago. In February 2009 the
CLI for Brazil decreased by 2.4 points and was 12.1 points lower than a year ago.

OECD Composite Leading Indicators
News Release
Methodological Notes
Purpose
The OECD CLI is designed to provide early signals of turning points in business cycles – fluctuations of economic activity
around its long term potential level. The approach, focusing on turning points (peaks and troughs), results in CLIs that
provide qualitative rather than quantitative information on short-term economic movements. Four cyclical phases form the
basis of this qualitative approach: expansion – CLI increasing and above 100; downturn – CLI decreasing and above 100;
slowdown – CLI decreasing and below 100; recovery – CLI increasing and below 100. Although the CLIs attempt to
predict movements in the output gap, they should not be interpreted as providing exact forecasts.
Reference Series
OECD CLIs are constructed from economic time series that have similar cyclical fluctuations to those of the business cycle
but which precede those of the business cycle. Typically movements in GDP are used as a proxy for the business cycle
but, because they are available on a more timely and monthly basis, the OECD CLI system uses instead indices of
industrial production (IIP) as proxy reference series. Moreover despite their tendency towards higher volatility historical
turning points of IIPs coincide well with those of GDP for most OECD countries. Table 2, above, shows recent turning
points in the reference series and these are marked provisional until they have been verified with the turning points of de-
trended quarterly GDP estimates.
Summary Methodology
The OECD CLIs are composite indicators: with components that target the early stages of production, respond rapidly to
changes in economic activity, are sensitive to expectations of future activity or are control variables that measure policy
stances. All components are passed through a series of filters before aggregation (seasonal adjustment, trend-removal,
smoothing and normalisation). The composite indicator is constructed to: preserve the leading properties of the
components, have more stable lead times, and have fewer missed or extra turning-points when compared to the
reference series than the components alone. The historical performance (lead/lag at turning points) of the CLIs for
individual countries and areas are set out in Table 2.
More information on methodology is available in the following document: “OECD system of composite leading indicators”.
Data
A large set of component series, selected from a wide range of economic indicators, are used in constructing CLIs (224
series are used in total, about 5-10 for each country). CLIs are calculated for 29 OECD countries and 9 zones. They are
calculated in three forms: amplitude adjusted, trend-restored, and year-on-year growth rate. These are comparable,
respectively, with the de-trended reference series, the original reference series and the year-on-year growth rate of the
reference series. The press release focuses on the amplitude adjusted form of the CLI, and includes the major countries
and zones.
Access to time series data and methodological information for OECD Composite Leading Indicators (CLI) and Consumer
and Business Confidence Indicators is provided by the OECD Business Cycle Analysis Database available at the OECD web
site at http://stats.oecd.org/mei/default.asp?rev=2
