Moving Towards the 2008 SNA: Key Issues African Group on National Accounts Meeting The Implementation of the 2008 System of National Accounts 3-6 February 2014, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia United Nations Statistics Division EN/AGNA/2014/Pres/09

 Introduction  System of National Accounts  Implementing the SNA  Monitoring SNA implementation  Conclusions 2 Outline of Presentation

To establish an enabling macroeconomic policy framework for equitable and sustainable development Requires a clear understanding of the underlying factors that drive national income growth, including: growth in capital accumulation, changes in employment rate, labour and capital productivity, changes in the terms of trade and linkages between macroeconomic policies and industrial and sectoral policies. 3 Macroeconomic framework

 This gives rise to the need, not only to monitor progress but also to evaluate whether or not goals are being achieved.  To obtain this overview of the economic processes data need to be organised in a framework that integrates and reconciles the data.  This requires data of sufficient scope, detail, quality and timeliness 4 The need to be informed

System of National Accounts  The national accounts support macroeconomic and sectoral policies including those related to employment, inflation, international trade, and finance growth and productivity of the economy  Consequently, the national accounts provide an overarching framework for macroeconomic statistics to facilitate economic analysis and policy formulation 5

SNA and Intermediate Accounts for Policy Analysis Indicators Accounts Basic data and statistics 6 ECONOMIC THEORY ECONOMIC ISSUES SYSTEM OF NATIONAL ACCOUNTS Concepts and definitions Policies and perspectives

 International level Objective ▫Change over to the 2008 SNA; ▫improve scope, detail and quality of the national accounts and supporting economic statistics To identify the required actions for implementation Principles ▫strategic planning ▫coordination, monitoring and reporting ▫improving statistical systems Developing an implementation plan for the SNA

 International level - Operationalise 2008 SNA implementation ▫Strategic planning framework: NSDS as the strategic planning framework ▫Information structure: based on the integrated economic statistics approach (standards, statistical production process, institutional arrangements) and internationally agreed scope (MRDS) and compliance for the national accounts and supporting economic statistics ▫Modalities: Training and technical cooperation, publication of manuals and handbooks, research and advocacy ▫Stages of implementation: leading to the change over to the 2008 SNA. Review, Adaptation and Application. Developing an implementation plan for the SNA

 Regional level African implementation programme Project document 14 outputs – phase 1 Continental Steering Committee  Need for national implementation plans Developing an implementation plan for the SNA

 National level Identify the macro economic policy needs to determine the scope and detail of the NA that needs to be compiled To prepare for an assessment of the adequacy of the statistical production process to provide the required data for the compilation of the NA To identify the required actions for implementation To develop a statement of strategy Developing an implementation plan for the SNA

 Regulatory and institutional framework – strengthening the functioning of NSS, its programming, management and performance  Statistical infrastructure – strengthening of use of standards (2008 SNA), classifications (ISIC Rev 4), registers and frames, modernizing information management and information technology  Statistical operations – strengthening of data collection, compilation, dissemination and analysis Required actions 11

 For monitoring the implementation of the SNA the ISWGNA developed a set of six milestones to assess the scope of accounts that are compiled by countries.  These milestones were later supplemented by three data sets describing (a) minimum set of accounts that need to be compiled; (b) a recommended set of accounts; and (c) a desired set of accounts.  To assess the compliance with major SNA concepts the ISWGNA developed a set of questions.  The quality of the national accounts dimension is assessed using the IMF quality assessment framework Monitoring 2008 SNA Implementation

13 Milestones  Milestone 1.GDP by Industry and Expenditure in current and volumes  Growth analysis  Milestone 2. GNI of Total Economy and Balance of Payments (current, capital and financial accounts) and GFS transaction accounts  Relations with the rest of the world (BoP) analysis  Milestone 3. Production and generation of income accounts for institutional sectors and for GG income distribution accs (including IIP for BoP and GFS transactions and stock in assets and liabilities)  Productivity analysis and fiscal analysis  Milestone 4. Production, generation, distribution, redistribution and use of income accounts and capital accounts for all institutional sectors (up to net lending)  Income distribution analysis  Minimum required macroeconomic data set, annual institutional sector accounts up to net lending and quarterly GDP and quarterly BoP

14  Milestone 5. Production, income and use accounts, capital accounts and financial accounts for institutional sectors  Growth analysis, BOP analysis, productivity analysis, fiscal, income distribution analysis and investment- financing analysis  Milestone 6. All transaction and flows accounts plus balance sheets  Financing-debt analysis (Flow of funds) and vulnerability analysis (currency mismatches, maturity mismatches (roll-over of debt), capital structure (equity vs debt), solvency (assets over liabilities) Milestones

 The MRDS include  Quarterly accounts for the nominal and volume measure of GDP by industry or by expenditure components  Quarterly compilation of the integrated accounts until net lending for the total economy and the rest of the world. Minimum Required Data Set (MRDS)

 The MRDS include Compilation of annual institutional sector accounts until net lending for the corporate, government, households and non-profit institutions serving households sectors Quarterly compilation of these sectors is now recommended. Compilation of their quarterly accounts is desirable. MRDS

 To assist in formulating strategies to improve data quality, IMF has developed a framework (DQAF) for assessing the quality of national accounts and other macroeconomic statistics.  The framework provides a structure and common language for best practices as well as internationally accepted concepts and definitions.  The framework follows a cascading structure that begins with a set of prerequisites and five dimensions of quality: integrity, methodological soundness, accuracy and reliability, serviceability and accessibility Data Quality Assessment of National Accounts

 Its objective is to determine to what extent important concepts in the 2008 SNA have been implemented affecting the level of: GDP, gross capital formation and gross national income (GNI). Compliance Measures for the 2008 SNA

Gross capital formation (GCF)/output  Entire defence expenditure incurred by government included in the GCF?  Consumption of fixed capital measured on all government fixed assets (airfields, roads, hospitals, dams and breakwaters and other forms of construction except structures) including military weapon systems?  Expenditure on Research and Development included in the output and GCF?  All (successful and unsuccessful) mineral exploration expenditure capitalized?  Purchases of computer software expected to be used for more than a year included in GCF?  Expenditure on software development on own account expected to be used for more than a year and for sale included in GCF and output? Compliance Measures for the 2008 SNA

Gross capital formation (GCF)/output  Expenditure on all databases expected to be used for more than a year, whether purchased on the market or developed in-house, included in the GCF and output?  Expenditure on entertainment, literary or artistic originals included in the GCF and on their development included in the output?  Expenditure on valuables included in the GCF?  Natural growth of cultivated forests included in output in GCF?  Output of financial intermediation services indirectly measured (FISIM) calculated on loans and deposits only using interest rates on deposits and loans and a reference rate of interest?  Output of FISIM allocated to users?  Production of all goods that are produced by households whether for sale or not —included in the output? Compliance Measures for the 2008 SNA

Gross capital formation (GCF)/output  Activity of the own-account money lenders included in the output?  Value of output of goods and services produced by households and corporations for own final use, when estimated on cost basis, include a return to capital?  Output of non-life insurance services in the event of catastrophic losses estimated using adjusted claims and adjusted premium supplements?  Output of the Central Bank estimated separately for financial intermediation services, monetary policy services and supervisory services overseeing financial corporations?  Unit undertaking purely ancillary activity, located in a geographically separate location from establishments it serves, treated as a separate establishment?  Output of the activity of non-autonomous pension funds and unfunded pension schemes separately recognized? Volume estimates  Volumes estimated using a chaining procedure with annually changing weights? with 2008 SNA concepts Compliance with 2008 SNA concepts

Social contributions/insurance  Unfunded social contributions (for sickness, unemployment, retirement etc.) by enterprises imputed as compensation of employees and included as contributions to social insurance?  Non-life insurance estimates include premium supplements rather than being based just on premiums less claims?  Life insurance estimates include premium supplements rather than being based just on premiums less claims? Elements affecting GNI  Reinvested earnings estimates included in the rest of the world account?  Foreign workers’ remittances excluded from GNI? and release data based on the 2008 SNA? Compliance with 2008 SNA concepts

Elements not affecting the level of GDP/GNI - Valuation of output  Output and value added measured at basic prices?  Output and value added measured at producers’ prices?  Value added measured at factor cost? (not part of the 2008 SNA)  Goods for processing recorded on a net basis? Final consumption  Government final consumption expenditure broken down into individual and collective consumption? Status of implementation of the 2008 SNA  2008 SNA has not been implemented in officially reported national accounts, when does the country plan to implement and release data based on the 2008 SNA? (Specify the year.) Compliance with 2008 SNA concepts

Statement of strategy :  Is an important documentation detailing steps and resources required to improve scope and detail of economic statistics with a view to producing timely, comparable national accounts statistics which fully meets the user needs as well as complies with the international standards.  Requires agreement by the national statistical system (data producer, provider and user), high political support and donor consultation  Basis for formulating a national implementation programme  Basis for actively seeking funding for implementation programmes from own sources and donors Conclusions

Setting goals Where we want to be Assessment Assessment of the NSS to support national accounts compilation Where are we now Action Plan Actions to reach goals How to get there Implementation How to stay there COUNTRY OWNERSHIP Political Commitment Statistical capacity National policy development plans, NSDS, etc. Regional strategic frameworks for statistical capacity building Support from the regional and global SNA implementation programme National statement of strategy Decide on the scope and detail of national accounts compilation Conclusions
