EUROPEAN COMMISSION - EUROSTAT ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methods of business-related Statistics 2010 project on statistical units n° 30121.2010.005 - 2010.405 Results of the qualitative part of the “Inquiry on the Statistical Units”: --- The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” M.

  2. ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” Respondent Countries by main administrative/statistical sources used to implement the enterprises in the BR and main detected characteristics (% out of 28 respondent countries) 2

  3. Part 3 Part 1 Part 2 ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” The Regulation N. 696/93 states that “The enterprise is the smallest combination of legal units that is an organizational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources. An enterprise carries out one or more activities at one or more locations. An enterprise may be a sole legal unit”. The application of each part has been investigated 3

  8. Subset of 15 countries  one-to-one relationship ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” Coverageof application of “Part 3” of the Enterprise definition 8

  9. LeUs carrying out ancillary activities (within an enterprise) 46.7% (7) • LeUs carrying out integrated activities (vertical/horizontal integration) 73.3% (11) • Separate LeUs for factors of production 40% (6) • LeUs providing shared services to more than one enterprise within an EG 40% (6) • Holding companies within a group 60% (9) • Other typologies (e.g. SPE or Artificial Subsidiaries of Corporations from SNA2008) 40% (6) ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” Typologies of LeUs to be combined/split to apply “Part 3” of the def. 9

  11. ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” • According to: • High/low coverage of the “treated” units in the BR • Number of typologies of LeUs to be combined/split • Additional description of the activities performed It was possible to classify better the countries in terms of their treatment of Legal Units 11

  13. ESSnet on Consistency of Concepts and Methodsof business-related Statistics. WP1 Statistical units The Statistical Unit “Enterprise” Conclusions • The use of threshold (turnover and/or employees) is the main criteria to identify enterprise from the legal units. • The most used criterion for “autonomy” is “an enterprise has accounts at its disposal” (68% of the NSIs) • Profiling methods seem to be used by 11 (35.5 %) countries. • Combination of LUs (using profiling or other methods) are performed by 15 Countries • Out of these countries only 8 seem to apply “strictly” the combination of LUs: 19.8 % in terms of total European enterprise, 18.0% in terms of total European employment. 13
