La parité de pouvoir d'achat (PPA) est un taux de conversion monétaire qui permet d'exprimer dans une unité commune les pouvoirs d'achat des différentes monnaies. Ce taux exprime le rapport entre la quantité d'unités monétaires nécessaire dans des pays différents pour se procurer le même panier de biens et de services. Ce taux de conversion peut être différent du taux de change; en effet, le taux de change d'une monnaie par rapport à une autre reflète leurs valeurs réciproques sur les marchés financiers internationaux et non leurs valeurs intrinsèques pour un consommateur. 5, record 1, French, - parit%C3%A9%20des%20pouvoirs%20d%27achat
