Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics publishes dozens of economic indicators, but its website is not user-friendly, data comes in inconvenient formats, and extracting specific figures requires downloading files and processing them manually. This makes it difficult for anyone who needs data-driven decisions, whether for business or research.
