  5. Methodology • FISIM Allocated for all countries except Japan, Mexico, New Zealand and Turkey • All OECD member countries, except Australia, compile accounts according to 1993 SNA • Australia has moved to 2008 SNA since December 2009. 5

  6. Linkages in the OECD ANA database : • For countries which have recently changed their methodology and therefore are sending shorter time series. • Users demand long and continuous time series • In consequence: countries are asked to specify any change in their methodology. • Secretariat will shortly link West Germany data with Germany after reunification data . 6

  7. AccessionCountries • 3 countries became member of the OECD in 2010 : • Chile ( on 7 May), • Slovenia (on 21 July) • and Israel (on 7 September). • These 3 countries have been included in all Secretariat’s work : publications and database. • Estonia was invited to become a member of the OECD in May 2010. • The Russian Federation is still in the process of accession. 7

  8. Enhanced engagement countries • The OECD is engaging key global players in its work : Brasil, China, India, Indonesia and South Africa. • In this regards National accounts questionnaires sent to Brasil, China, India, and South Africa in the last three months. And soon to Indonesia. • China is already sending GDP and population tables to the Secretariat 8

  9. Access to data • Access is free to NSOs and Governments : • http://www.oecd.org/olisnet • OECD.stat enables to display any set of data from OECD databases • http://stats.oecd.org/index.aspx 9

  10. In summary : • Send as much information /data as possible • Special effort to supply tables 2000 (fixed assets by industry and by type of assets) and 2600 (Balance sheet for non-financial assets) • The use of SDMX/NAWWE is highly recommended. • The Secretariat is investigating the feasibility of stream lining the processing of Eurostat data to free out resources to tackle Enhanced Engagement countries. 10
