For many years, Eurostat, together with the OECD, has run the European comparison programme. The aim is to compile purchasing power parities (PPPs), which are a kind of alternative exchange rates that allow a comparison of, for example, GDP across countries, that is unaffected by differences in price levels between the countries.
