New Data: Finland - Financial accounts - Addendum
Tuesday, 30 Oct 2018 16:59 ET
By Kelli Johnson
Summary
October 2018 -- For the financial accounts of Finland, Data Buffet now carries the asset categories "entitlements to non-pension benefits" and "quoted shares" (12 new quarterly series, from 2016).
Detail

Asset category "entitlements to non-pension benefits [AF65]", both stocks and transactions, is reported for these institutional sectors:

  • Balance - All sectors [S0]
  • Liabilities - Total economy [S1]
  • Liabilities - Insurance corporations; pension funds [S128;S129]
  • Assets - Total economy [S1]
  • Assets - Households [S14]

Asset category "quoted shares [AF511]", both stocks and transactions, is reported for:

  • Liabilities - Housing corporations [S112]

Dataset properties:

  • Measurements:
    • Stock - Millions of euros (Mil. EUR)
    • Transactions - Millions of euros quarter-over-quarter (Mil. EUR Q/Q)
  • Adjustment: Not seasonally adjusted (NSA)
  • Native frequency: Quarterly
  • Start date: 2016Q1, except for quoted shares [AF511] from 2018Q2
  • Subject to revisions: Yes

The series reside in the historical catalog (Finland » Financial » Financial Accounts » Stocks | Transactions » Balances | Assets | Liabilities). Additions include, for example:

  • AFLFSBTTIENUQ.IFIN = Stocks - Balance - All sectors [S0] - Entitlements to non-pension benefits [AF65], (Mil. EUR, NSA)
  • AFLFFLTEIENUQ.IFIN = Transactions - Liabilities - Total economy [S1] - Entitlements to non-pension benefits [AF65], (Mil. EUR Q/Q, NSA)
  • AFLFFLCHQSHUQ.IFIN = Transactions - Liabilities - Housing corporations [S112] - Quoted shared [AF511], (Mil. EUR Q/Q, NSA)
  • AFLFSAHHIENUQ.IFIN = Stocks - Assets - Households [S14] - Entitlements to non-pension benefits [AF65], (Mil. EUR, 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.

Please be aware that

  • The ESA codes for instrument (financial asset) and institutional sector are notated in square brackets in the description metadata.
  • Under SNA and ESA, "total economy [S1]" is specifically the domestic economy.
  • The source's data portal has no notion of "asset vs. liability", only "creditor and debtor." Instead, when paired with a counterparty sector, "All sectors [S0]" represents an asset in one direction and a liability in the reverse direction. Similarly, balance is defined when both parties are "All sectors [S0]".
