Economic indicators are used to measure the performance of the economy when other indicators, such as gross domestic product, may not provide information about the state of the economy in real time. This article provides a review of national and international literature about the construction of indicators of economic activity. Additionally, a summary of the methodology most commonly used in the construction of indices of economic activity, Factorial Dynamic Model (MFD) and different types of estimation is offered. Los indicadores de actividad económica son utilizados para medir el comportamiento de una economía cuando ningún otro tipo de indicador, como el producto interno bruto, puede proporcionar información sobre el estado de la economía de forma actualizada. En este documento se realiza una revisión de la literatura nacional e internacional sobre la construcción de indicadores de actividad económica. Adicionalmente, se ofrece un resumen de la metodología más utilizada en la construcción de índices de actividad económica, el modelo factorial dinámico (MFD) y sus diferentes tipos de estimación, resaltando las ventajas y desventajas. Finalmente, se presenta el método utilizado en la construcción del índice mensual de actividad económica para el Valle del Cauca (IMAE).
