The size of the Asia and the Pacific economy based on purchasing power parities: results from the International Comparison Program New results from the ICP including purchasing power parities (PPP), price level indexes and PPP-based expenditures for reference year 2017 are now available at icp.worldbank.org. This blog series, edited by Edie Purdie, covers all aspects of the ICP and explores the use made of these data by researchers, policymakers, economists, data scientists and others. We encourage users to share their data applications and findings in this blog series via [email protected]. Since the publication of the 2017 International Comparison Program’s (ICP) global results for 176 economies in May 2020, the program’s regional implementing agencies have released results and analyses covering the economies participating in their respective regions. These regional programs are the building blocks of the global program, and in this series of region-focused blogs, we highlight each to explore how the ICP is organized regionally, what the regional ICP results tell us, and what’s in store as we launch the ICP 2021 cycle.
