About this indicator

Source
International Monetary Fund
Frequency
Annual
Release
Published annually, referring to a specific date in the year.
What it is
Records the number of inhabitants in the Czech Republic and how it changes over time. Published by the Czech Statistical Office (ČSÚ), it is a structural indicator underpinning many economic and social ratios (GDP per capita, density, per-head rates, etc.).
How it's calculated
The ČSÚ updates the population from censuses and statistics on births, deaths and net migration, with a figure referenced to an annual date. Immigration is the main support of Czech demographic growth.
Market implications
Demographic trends shape potential growth, the labour market, consumption and spending on pensions and healthcare. In the Czech Republic, with low birth rates and ageing, immigration sustains the working-age population.
Limitations
It is a low-frequency figure and inter-census estimates are subject to revision. Even with sound administrative records, recent migration flows are hard to capture accurately in real time.
