Tuesday, 19 May 2020 00:58 ET
By Jacky Cheung
Summary
April 2020 -- For the quarterly national accounts for the Philippines, prior to dissemination of results for 2020Q1, the source has advanced the currency reference year from 2000 to 2018 (135 quarterly series 1981 to 2019, replaced by 86 from 2000).
Detail

In response, we have:

  1. Archived the predecessors (reference year 2000, 1981Q1 to 2019Q4) by renaming with an "_00" specifier, by marking metadata as "discontinued", and by segregating in the catalog.
  2. Created one-for-one replacements (reference year 2018).
  3. Added newly-reported concepts.
  4. Replaced the corresponding current-valued series in the same way.

Notable changes to properties (for full list, see background):

  • Currency reference year: From 2000 to 2018
  • Start date: From 1981Q1 to 2000Q1

The active series reside in the historical catalog:

  • Philippines » National Account» by Expenditure » Quarterly
  • Philippines » National Account» by Value Add » Quarterly

Please be aware that

The 2020Q1 release is scheduled for 7 May.

The reported set of GDP(E) concepts has expanded: GFCF for IP products, net acquisition of valuables, exports and imports of goods and services separately.

For the predecessor dataset, Moody's Analytics produced seasonally adjusted counterparts to the reported data. Our replacements are pending.
