Abstract

The Regional Gross Value Added (GVA) Inventory provides a detailed explanation of the sources and methods used for estimating gross value added (GVA) in MALTA. It is the basis for the assessment of the quality and exhaustiveness of regional GVA data by Eurostat and their compliance with the European System of National and Regional Accounts (ESA 2010). The Inventory is a reference document that is kept up-to-date to reflect the latest methodology in place. The inventory is in accordance with ESA 2010 which is an internationally compatible EU accounting framework for a systematic and detailed description of an economy. Thus, this regional GVA inventory ensures transparency for users and enhances comparability between different regions within the European Union.
