Reliability of Ideal Indexes

open access: yes, 2022
The Fisher and GEKS are celebrated as ideal bilateral and multilateral indexes due to their superior axiomatic and econ-theoretic properties. The Fisher index is the main index used for constructing CPI by statistical agencies and the GEKS is the index used for compiling PPPs in World Bank's International Comparison Program (ICP).
