OECD Handbook on Compiling Digital Supply and Use Tables
Released:2023
Description:The digital economy is growing, with producers increasingly using digital technology to revolutionise their production processes, and with new business models being created based on the digital transformation. To improve the visibility of digitalisation in macroeconomic statistics, the Digital Supply and Use Tables (SUTs) framework has been developed under the auspices of the OECD’s Informal Advisory Group (IAG) on Measuring GDP in a Digitalised Economy. In the Digital SUTs framework, three dimensions are introduced for measuring the digital economy: the nature of the transaction (the “how”), the goods and services produced (the “what”), and the new digital industries (the “who”). The OECD Handbook on Compiling Digital SUTs explains these three dimensions and includes examples. It also presents the high priority indicators that have been agreed by the IAG and includes recommended templates for producing the outputs.

Handbook on the compilation of statistics on sea and air transport in national accounts and balance of payments
Released:2020
Description:This Handbook represents the first comprehensive overview of conceptual and practical issues related the compilation of statistics on sea and air transport in national accounts (NA) and balance of payments (BOP). Estimating the contribution of the use of vessels and aircraft to national economies is challenging due to the complexity of shipping and aviation business models and infrastructure. However, statistical institutions and data users have increasingly recognised the need for comprehensive, reliable and internationally available information on sea and air transport in NA and BOP. The purpose of this handbook is to increase and improve existing understanding of economic activities in shipping and aviation. This allows interpreting international manuals and guides, relevant for collecting and compiling sea and air transport statistics, in a consistent and coordinated way. This handbook is the result of the joint work of the members of the Eurostat Task Force on the compilation of statistics on sea and air transport, consisting of experts from Eurostat Unit C5 Balance of Payments and Integrated Global Accounts, European national statistical institutes and central banks, as well as the ECB. This handbook benefits from contributions of experts working in the maritime and aviation cluster.

Guidelines on producing leading, composite and sentiment indicators (UNECE)
Released:2019
Description:Leading, composite and sentiment (LCS) indicators offer a powerful way of communicating statistical information and of reaching out to users of statistics. The indicators can provide relevant and timely information on aspects of the economy and the society that are not covered by more conventional statistics. They can also provide information on complex phenomena in a simple and condensed form –for instance on current or expected economic development or on the well-being or sense of happiness of citizens. While some statistical offices already have experience in compiling and disseminating LCS indicators, practices differ and they are new to many others. The Bureau of the Conference of European Statisticians, therefore, in 2016 established a Task Force to develop practical and operational Guidelines for offices that are producing or considering the production of LCS indicators. These Guidelines are the results of the work of the Task Force and were endorsed by the Conference of European Statisticians in June 2019. The Guidelines introduce LCS indicators and explain their potential uses and the rationale for producing them. The Guidelines provide guidance to managers to aid their decision-making about whether and how to engage in the production of LCS indicators and give practical advice both for the compilation of LCS indicators and for their communication. While the Guidelines are targeted principally at national statistical offices, others interested in the compilation and use of LCS indicators will also find the Guidelines useful.

Practical guidelines for revising ESA 2010 data
Released:2019
Description:The guidelines released in 2019, have been prepared as a practical tool for compilers of national accounts based on ESA 2010. Their objective is to translate the voluntary recommendations on data revisions into specific practices that ensure that national accounts are accurate, reliable, consistent and comparable. Harmonised recommendations have been developed in the European Union for more than ten years, to guide compilers of national accounts and balance of payments statistics. A harmonised European revision policy (HERP) 4 was put in place to ensure coordinated and consistent revisions between the statistical domains within each country and across the EU. The guidelines give recommendations on how to conduct benchmark revisions (or major regular revisions) of ESA 2010 data, while recommendations are also given for routine revisions. The guidelines also discuss metadata and communication of benchmark, routine and non-scheduled revisions. The guidelines provide good practices for the application of HERP at national level and show how these are being assessed in the context of ESA 2010 quality reporting and assessment. Lastly, Eurostat’s revision policy and practices for ESA 2010 data are also presented.

ESS guidelines on temporal disaggregation, benchmarking and reconciliation
Released:2018
Description:In official statistics there is an increasing demand for indicators at a higher frequency than have traditionally been observed. Eurostat and the European Statistical System (ESS) developed these guidelines to help data producers derive high frequency data (e.g. quarterly or monthly) from low frequency data (e.g. annual) and to address related temporal and accounting constraints. These guidelines are aimed at those involved in the production and analysis of infraannual European statistics (compiled by Eurostat) and corresponding country specific official statistics compiled by National Statistical Institutes (NSIs). They have been conceived both for experts and beginners. In order to rank the different methods, each issue is discussed following a structure with three parts: a description (free text presenting the problem), a list of options (various possibilities to deal with the specific issue) and a list of ranked alternatives (A,B,C). The document can be downloaded from Eurostat website at the following link: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-manuals-and-guidelines/-/KS-06-18-355

WORLDBANK: The 2008 SNA - compilation in brief (A complement to the 2008 SNA)
Released:2013
Description:From time to time the idea of devising a simplified SNA has been floated for developing countries. With this background the World Bank has undertaken the preparation of two handbooks to help extend the implementation of the SNA in countries such as these. This is one of the new handbooks. It suggests that the way to extend the range of implementation of the whole system, however, is not a simplification of the basic theory of the SNA but a simplification of compilation practices. Ideally this should be a first step towards a more extensive coverage of the accounts but even the simplified accounts should serve to make users aware of the potential of the whole system and give the compilers courage to build on these first steps.

WORLDBANK: The 2008 SNA - concepts in brief (A complement to the 2008 SNA)
Released:2013
Description:From time to time the idea of devising a simplified SNA has been floated for developing countries. With this background the World Bank has undertaken the preparation of two handbooks to help extend the implementation of the SNA in countries such as these. This is one of the new handbooks. It is not only strictly consistent with the full text of the 2008 SNA, but uses that text. However, by setting aside some aspects of limited (or possibly no) relevance to many small developing countries, such as a description of sophisticated financial instruments and some possible elaboration of links to other systems, the 600 pages of the full text of the 2008 SNA is reduced to one third of this. The document carefully enumerates what has been omitted so that the reader is aware of these and able to turn to the more extended volume if required.

OECD: Handbook on Deriving Capital Measures of Intellectual Property Products
Released:2010
Description:The latest System of National Accounts (the 2008 SNA) explicitly recognises, for the first time, that expenditures on research and experimental development (R&D) should be recorded as capital formation. This is a natural extension to the 1993 SNA, which recommends recording many acquisitions of software and databases, mineral exploration, and entertainment, artistic and literary originals as capital formation, too. These products have a common characteristic, namely that their value reflects the underlying intellectual property they embody, which is why they are referred to collectively in this publication as intellectual property products (IPPs). But they also share another important characteristic: their measurement is not straightforward, and in the absence of clear guidance it is highly likely that estimates will not be comparable between countries. This Handbook is designed to provide that guidance by considering IPPs collectively, based on their common characteristics, by type, based on any specificities, such as data availability, and by detailed transaction - for example the valuation of IPPs that have been produced for internal use by their developers, the valuation of unsuccessful IPPs, and the production of IPPs produced and made freely available by government.
