Data Revision: Hong Kong - Real GDP(E) - Re-referenced to 2015
Monday, 22 May 2017 19:59 ET
By Annie Kao
Summary
May 2017 -- For the quarterly constant-price national accounts (expenditure approach to GDP) the source has advanced the currency reference year from 2014 to 2015 (36 quarterly series revised from 1973).
Detail

In response, we have loaded the revised values into the existing series.

The framework is SNA 2008. Figures are millions of Hong Kong dollars at chained year-2015 prices (Mil. Ch. 2015 HKD). There are two presentations, seasonally adjusted (SA) or not (NSA). Start dates vary, from 1973Q1 to 1990Q1.

The series reside in the historical catalog (Hong Kong » National Accounts » by Expenditure » Quarterly » Chained prices | Deflators | Growth rates) and include, for example:

  • NACEGDPUQ.IHKG    = Expenditure approach - Gross domestic product, (Mil. Ch. 2015 HKD, NSA)
  • NA%ERFCHNQAQ.IHKG = Growth in real private consumption expenditure, (% Q/Q, SA)
  • NAIEDFGDPUQ.IHKG  = Implicit price deflator of GDP, (Index 2015=100, NSA)

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.
