Output of central banks

Back to Issues Under Discussion

Description of the issue
The recommendations for measuring the output of central banks in the 2008 SNA and the European System of Accounts 2010 are slightly different. The difference relates mainly to whether or not central bank services are to be considered market output, and to the identification of which sector consumes the relevant services.

A clarification of this issue is presented in SNA News and Notes, No. 36 (May 2013).
