Search for economic data sources in Asian and East European Countries
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
We are creating a global macroeconomic database with data on activity, prices, external sector, markets, fiscal, debt, etc, and we are looking for economists freelancers or related in India, Korea, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Turkey, Egypt, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, UAE, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand.
We need to identify the local sources of economic data for 55 topics. Some experience in economic data is recommended. See attached excel file for details. The expected outcome is:
- The excel file with the URL of the website and the specific file where the data can be found.
- A complimentary google doc specifying, for each topic, exactly where that data is, including screenshots and or observations if it's not straightforward.
The list of countries above is not exhaustive, that is our priority but we are willing to receive data from other countries. We will pay each country individually. Please bid the price that you will charge for each country.
Some remark on the search process
- Only local sources are accepted, we don't want International Institutions such as IMF or data aggregators
- If the data is inside Excel, tell us where in excel we can find the data. HTML tables also work
- If possible, the data should be in English. If not possible please put some notes on the screenshots.
- in our excel, the "Description" column has a short explanation of the indicator/s we are searching for, along with details about the type of data that should be extracted (nominal or real terms, original series, seasonally adjusted series, etc).
- "Frequency" column has the intended frequency of the data we are searching for. If it is not availabe, higher/lower frequency data is acceptable.
- you'll also find some examples from the Alphacast dataset for other countries, as a guide to what we are searching for.
- LCU stands for Local Currency Unit.
- Mapping additional data is desirable. If extra data is found, add rows to the corresponding category/subcategory and fill the columns with the necessary information.
- It is very likely that not all topics are available for every country. If that is the case please specify a similar source
