Switzerland Producer Price Index (PPI) m/m reflects a change in prices for goods produced and sold by Swiss manufacturers in the domestic and foreign markets. The index shows a change in the given month compared to the previous one.

The calculation includes main production sectors, such as farming, mining, consumer goods production, energy and processing.

Producer prices are a leading indicator of consumer price inflation. PPI growth can be seen as positive for the Swiss franc quotes.
