Latin Macro Watch Dataset - Macroeconomic and Financial Indicators for Latin America and the Caribbean

The Latin Macro Watch (LMW) is a comprehensive macroeconomic and financial dataset developed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). It provides economic indicators and historical data on growth, employment, fiscal accounts, external balances, financial markets, and forecasts for Latin America and the Caribbean.

The dataset includes monthly, quarterly, and annual data beginning in 1990, covering the 26 borrowing member countries of the IDB. Users can explore variables such as GDP, consumption, trade, inflation, and debt to analyze macroeconomic trends and regional development patterns.

The Latin Macro Watch Dataset is currently undergoing a revision and enhancement process to improve data quality, coverage, and accessibility. Updated data will continue to be made available through the IDB Open Data Portal, enabling policymakers, researchers, and economists to make data-driven decisions.
