The Composite Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) is a weighted average of the Manufacturing PMI and the Services PMI. It provides a comprehensive single-figure snapshot of the health of the entire private sector economy. Analysts and policymakers use this index to gauge the overall direction of GDP growth and business sentiment. Because it combines both manufacturing and services, it is often considered the most reliable leading indicator for the broader economy.
Calculated by combining the survey results from both the manufacturing and services sectors, weighted by the relative contribution of each sector to the country's total GDP.
