UNECE capacity building Regional activities on the 2008 SNA STATISTICS UNECE Steering Group on National Accounts to: Coordinate work in the area of national accounts and globalization Promote internationally agreed standards and best practices - 2008 SNA Advise the UNECE Secretariat on capacity building activities National plans for the 2008 SNA implementation → Regional recommendations for the 2008 SNA implementation: Enhance the inter-institutional cooperation in macroeconomic statistics UNECE advisory missions and training workshops fall under: The World Bank ECASTAT programme UN Development Account programme on Statistics and Data UNECE/EFTA/Eurostat workshops to enhance cooperation between national statistical offices, central banks and ministries of finance: Implementation and links between the 2008 SNA and Government Finance Statistics (GFS), Istanbul, 20-22 November 2013 Implementation of the 2008 SNA and linkages with BoP and GFS, Istanbul, 6-8 May 2015 Implementation and consistency between the 2008 SNA and BoP, Minsk, 3-5 October 2017

Goals of the workshop Consistency between the 2008 SNA and BoP STATISTICS Workshop on Implementation and Consistency between the 2008 SNA and Balance of Payments, Minsk, 3-5 October 2017 Objectives: Discuss the main challenges and good practices in ensuring consistency Review specific methodological and practical issues Substantive sessions: Importance of consistency between national accounts and balance of payments National practices in ensuring coordination, data quality and consistency Selected methodological and practical issues Participants: 50 participants from 21 countries and 6 international organizations Representatives of national statistical offices and central banks

Main conclusions of the workshop National situation and actions STATISTICS Consistency of main economic aggregates is important Problems persist due to differences in data sources, compilation schedules, techniques and interpretation of standards Current situation in the sub-region of Eastern Europe Good progress in implementing the 2008 SNA while limited resources Central banks produce BoP and statistical offices non-financial accounts Financial accounts are being developed, now mostly experimental The full set of sector accounts typically produced annually Sometimes the 1993 SNA still used, while BPM6 already applied Inter-institutional agreements and working groups established Historical inconsistencies are difficult to resolve Enhanced inter-institutional cooperation is necessary and should Focus more on analyzing methodologies and discrepancies Coordinate the process of compiling economic statistics Develop common tools for user communication and education Agree on goals, terminology and action plan for improvements

Way forward after the workshop Possible international actions STATISTICS A focused forum to share experience and good practices Involve key producers of macroeconomic statistics Cover institutional arrangements, data collection and exchange, concrete methodological and practical solutions Extend existing group of experts on national accounts to central banks when relevant International methodological development BPM6 and 2008 SNA are consistent, but the terminology and language could be harmonized further More practical guidance needed to avoid different interpretations in the practical implementation of the 2008 SNA and BPM6 Development of tools and frameworks to enable data exchange across countries for quality improvements Training on how to address the links between business statistics and national accounts Training on redesigning questionnaires and methodologies to measure transactions related to multinationals and global production

Issues for discussion Seeking advice from AEG STATISTICS UNECE would like to invite AEG to discuss the following questions: Does the AEG consider that a more coordinated approach in implementation of BPM6 and 2008 SNA should be encouraged in countries? If yes, what could be the role of the international statistical community e.g. provide regional forums engaging national accounts and balance of payments compilers? How the different interpretations by the producers of national accounts and balance of payments statistics could be eliminated? AEG is invited to discuss the need of further harmonization of the terminology and practical guidance of the two standards.
