    ​GSCPI​The Global Supply Side Inflation gauge

    The Global Supply Chain Pressures Index is a measure of the difficulties that global supply chains face in keeping up with the demand for goods and services. This index takes various factors into consideration, like shipping delays, how much stuff can be produced, how much stuff is in stock, and how much it costs to move stuff around. The index is used to keep track of the overall health of global supply chains and help businesses and policymakers understand the risks and opportunities that come with global trade. A high value of the index means that the supply chain is struggling to keep up with demand, while a low value means that the supply chain is running smoothly.
