This document outlines the history and methodologies of the CIS comparisons initiated in 1993, with multiple rounds conducted in 1993, 1996, 2000, and 2004/2005. It highlights the varying participation of countries and the close collaboration with the OECD in the realm of purchasing power parities (PPP). Using OECD methodologies and Eurostat software, the results are disseminated across CIS nations and used as governmental indicators. The ongoing collaboration aims at refining consumer surveys and preparing for future rounds, emphasizing the importance of legal frameworks and resource allocation.
