Trading Economics MCP Tools

The Trading Economics MCP server exposes a wide range of tools covering economic indicators, calendars, financial markets, corporate financials, news, and forecasts. If you’re building agentic software, you can connect to the Trading Economics MCP remote server at https://mcp.tradingeconomics.com using a Trading Economics API key while leveraging foundation models from companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Meta — as well as any MCP-compatible large language model.
