Long abstract
Quarterly National Accounts - Sources and Methods
National accounts have long been established as the essential indicator of economic development. Their use for monitoring current developments is limited, however, if they are available only once a year. In recognition of this, most OECD countries have started to estimate national accounts on a quarterly basis. The publication Quarterly National Accounts: Sources and Methods Used by OECD Member Countries serves as a practical manual for statisticians responsible for initiating or improving quarterly estimates, and as a guide for analysts and other users to assess the reliability of quarterly accounts. |
This edition spans the last 14 years and contains a selection of the accounts most widely used for economic analysis. Quarterly National Accounts |
