Footnotes

*Retail trade data are seasonally adjusted in line with Eurostat recommendations using the JDemetra+ 2.2.0 software and the TRAMO-SEATS method, applying the direct approach. Under this approach, both the aggregate series and the component series are adjusted directly and independently of each other. This method ensures that each time series is adjusted with the best possible model specification, thereby removing all identifiable seasonal effects from every series. Further information on the seasonal adjustment process is available at the following link: About seasonal adjustment. Consistent with the direct approach, the best-fitting model is selected separately for each retail trade category. As a natural consequence, calendar effects (working-day effect, Easter effect, leap-year effect), the functional form describing seasonal patterns, and the type and magnitude of outliers may differ across categories. Therefore, neither the working-day adjusted volume indices nor the seasonally and calendar-adjusted volume indices are not consistent with the aggregate, meaning that the “total retail trade” volume index cannot be obtained as the weighted average of the component indices.
aFrom January 2020 data also include market and other non-store retail sales.
bA time series of sufficient length is not available for the data adjustment.
