European Central Bank — Risk Assessment Indicators (RAI)
Risk Assessment Indicators (RAI) is a dataset of official time series published by the European Central Bank through its Data Portal, as the RAI dataflow over the SDMX 2.1 REST API. A single endpoint serves data in XML (SDMX-ML), CSV (?format=csvdata) and JSON (?format=jsondata) formats, allowing users to extract specific series using a key path together with startPeriod, endPeriod and lastNObservations filters. The same series can also be browsed and charted interactively on the ECB Data Portal, covering economic and price-related risk indicators across the euro area.Risk Assessment Indicators (RAI) — official time series from the European Central Bank Data Portal, published as the RAI dataflow over SDMX 2.1 REST.
