Quarterly National Accounts, OECD

The OECD's Quarterly National Accounts spans the last 5 years and contains a selection of the accounts most widely used by economic analysts. The publication is divided into three parts. The first part consists of international comparisons for gross domestic product (GDP) and its main expenditure components. The second part consists of country tables presented in standard tables for the following accounts, when available: GDP by expenditure and by industry, gross fixed capital formation by asset, gross fixed capital formation by institutional sector and components of disposable income; at both current and constant prices. Saving and Net lending and GDP by income at current prices are also provided as well as population and employment data (national concept) and employment by industry (domestic concept). The third part is dedicated to zones' aggregates for GDP by expenditure.

The data cover 34 OECD countries, and totals are provided for the following groups: OECD, OECD-Europe, the European Union, the euro area and the Major seven (G7). 

Data are based on the System of National Accounts 1993 (1993 SNA) for all countries except Australia (2008 SNA).
