PREFACE 1 Hungarian Central Statistical Office, 218 7

PREFACE Four countries in Eastern Europe, with relations in the field of business, science, arts, everyday life, sharing even monarchs in various periods, have constituted a group cooperating at many levels for many centuries. The history of the Visegrád Group dates back to the 14th century, when the leaders of the Central European kingdoms that cover today s countries held a summit in order to resolve international disputes. The V4 group of modern times was established in Visegrád to promote progress and development in the region. The Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia acceded the European Union in 24, contributing by more than one tenth of the area and population, nearly 6 of economic performance based on GDP, about 8 of manufacturing of motor vehicles and almost one fifth of main crops produced by 216. History of official statistical services dates back to a century or even more in the V4 countries. Preceding the accession to the EU, these statistical offices cooperated including other Eastern European countries, resulting for instance in a quarterly bulletin, published between 1993 and 24.

PPPs tell us how many currency units a given quantity of goods and services costs in different countries. PPPs can thus be used as currency conversion rates to convert expenditures expressed in national currencies into an artificial common currency, e.g. the Purchasing Power Standard, PPS), eliminating the effect of price level differences across countries. 2 Main indicators of the Visegrád Group countries
