Data Change: Singapore - QNA - Re-referenced to 2015
Tuesday, 25 Jun 2019 15:55 ET
By Jason Flynn
Summary
June 2019 -- For the quarterly national accounts of Singapore, concurrent with dissemination of results for 2019Q1, the currency reference year has been advanced from 2010 to 2015 (170 quarterly series 1975 to 2019, replaced from 1975).
Detail

In response, we have:

  1. Archived predecessors (currency reference year 2010, 1975Q1 to 2019Q1) by renaming with an "_10" archive specifier, by marking metadata as discontinued, and by segregating in the catalog.
  2. Created one-for-one replacements (currency reference year 2015) with an unchanged start date.
  3. Recreated Moody's Analytics supplements as necessary.

Dataset properties:

  • Framework: UN SNA 2008
  • Industry classification: SSIC 2015
  • Measurements: Millions of Singapore dollars at current prices (Mil. SGD) or chained year-2015 prices (Mil. Ch. 2015 SGDP)
  • Adjustments: Seasonally adjusted (SA) or not (NSA)
  • Native frequency: Quarterly
  • Start date: Uniformly 1975Q1

The active series reside in the historical catalog (Singapore » National Accounts » by Expenditure | by Value Added » Quarterly) and the predecessors under the associated "discontinued" nodes. They include, for example:

  • NACEEX_10AQ.ISGP = [DISCONTINUED] National accounts: Expenditure approach - Exports of goods and services, (Mil. 2010 SGD, SA)
  • NAHECIAQ.ISGP    = Expenditure approach - Changes in inventories, (Mil. Ch. 2015 SGD, SA)
  • NALSTOPAQ.ISGP   = Production approach - Taxes on products, (Mil. SGD, SA)

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.

In addition, we corrected the mnemonic of one Moody's Analytics supplement, viz., constant-price statistical discrepancy.

  • NAHESDAQ.ISGP » NALESD_10AQ.ISGP

Please be aware that

The corresponding annual series start at 1960.
