Eurostat published today the statistical annex to the alert mechanism report, containing the indicators of the macroeconomic imbalance procedure (MIP) scoreboard.

The MIP scoreboard consists of 13 indicators relevant for the early detection of existing or emerging macroeconomic imbalances at EU country level. It provides statistical support to the annual alert mechanism report released by the European Commission at the start of the European Semester. The alert mechanism report identifies EU countries for which in-depth analyses are required, based on an economic reading of the scoreboard indicators, complemented by other auxiliary indicators. 

The full data series are available on the regularly updated MIP thematic section of the Eurostat website.Â
