The Global Supply Chain Pressure Index (GSCPI) is a measure created by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York that tracks supply chain disruptions using transportation costs and manufacturing data. It helps traders assess inflationary pressures stemming from supply-side bottlenecks.
Example
“When the GSCPI surged to record highs during the pandemic, traders bought commodity futures and inflation-linked bonds anticipating persistent price pressures from supply chain disruptions.”
