Industrial Production Index

The Industrial Production Index (IPI) is a measurement that tracks the growth or decline of a country’s manufacturing, mining, and utility sectors over time. It indicates how active and productive these industries are, reflecting economic health. A rising IPI suggests increased industrial activity and economic strength, while a falling index signals slowdown. It helps policymakers, businesses, and analysts assess economic trends and make informed decisions, serving as a key indicator of overall industrial performance within an economy.
