This website contains the dataset of central banker speeches (CBS Dataset) collected for Campiglio, Deyris, Romelli, and Scalisi (2025). This dataset has been created by complementing the Central Bankers’ Speeches dataset compiled by the Bank for International Settlements (18,045 speeches) with a systematic scraping of central banks' websites (15,435 new speeches) and archive work (2,007 additional speeches).

The dataset features 35,487 unique speeches from 131 central banks, for the period January 1986 (date of the first online speech by a central bank) to December 2023. Among those speeches, 5,347 were provided in a non-English language and were translated using Microsoft Translation services.

The dataset is available free of charge for academic research and personal non-commercial use. It can be downloaded in various formats below or explored using an interactive app.
