Business Price Index (BPI)

The London Chamber BPI is a new measure, compiled from official data sources, of the total costs associated with producing a typical basket of goods and services.

It is designed to provide policy makers, businesses and the media with a regular, comprehensive and rigorous assessment of business costs – to do the same job for businesses that the CPI does for consumers

The London Chamber BPI weights together measures of input costs of raw materials and energy, intermediate goods and services, and labour costs (which together comprise total variable costs) and capital (or fixed) costs, where the weights are derived from the most recent input/output tables for the UK.
