Euromonitor International is launching two new macroeconomic tools through Passport: Economic Barometer and Passport Connector.

Economic Barometer

Economic Barometer provides a new way to explore and make the most of regularly updated monthly and quarterly macroeconomic data in a single, easy-to-use location. Use Economic Barometer to regularly track the latest global economic trends in a very convenient and time-saving way. In this concentrated tool you can find the latest monthly and quarterly data for 81 countries and 32 indicators.

Passport Connector

Passport Connector quite literally helps clients to ‘connect the dots’ between two Passport systems. The tool uses scatter plots to identify and show relationships between two data sets. It can identify product complements (e.g. beer and potato crisps), substitutes (frozen pizza vs. consumer foodservice) and other potential socio-economic relationships (divorce rates and cat food sales).

How to access to Passport?   
 
Access campus-wide and off campus, from the Top Databases menu on the Library homepage, clicking on Passport, or from the Databases page. You would be able to find this new tools available on Economies: Economy, Finance and Trade page.
