The International Financial Statistics database corresponds to the International Financial Statistics Yearbook published by the International Monetary Fund. Updated monthly, this CD-ROM provides users with time series data covering over 26,000 economic and financial concepts, such as exchange rates, balance of payments, government finance, interest rates, international liquidity and banking, national accounts, prices, production and trade. The data can be downloaded into spreadsheets for manipulation by the user. IFS is available on a stand-alone workstation in the Reference area in Lauinger Library.
