Volume IIIa covers financial accounts of OECD countries and includes financial transactions (both net acquisition of financial assets and net incurrence of liabilities), by institutional sector (Non-financial corporations (S11), Financial corporations (S12), General government (S13), Central Government (S1311), Households and Non-profit institutions serving households - NPISH (S14-S15), Total economy (S1) and Rest of the World (S2)) and by financial instrument.
Data are shown for 23 of the 30 OECD countries for the period from 1996 to 2007 in the paper version and for 24 OECD countries from 1970 onwards in the electronic version, depending on data availability.
Volume IIIb covers financial balance sheets of OECD countries and includes financial stocks (both financial assets and liabilities), by institutional sector (Non-financial corporations (S11), Financial corporations (S12), General government (S13), Central Government (S1311), Households and Non-profit institutions serving households - NPISH (S14-S15), Total economy (S1) and Rest of the World (S2)) and by financial instrument.
Data are shown for 21 of the 30 OECD countries for the period from 1996 to 2007 in the paper version and for 22 OECD countries from 1970 onwards in the electronic version, depending on data availability.
Two types of tables are shown in Volumes IIIa and IIIb:
-
crossed tables which provide transactions and stocks data in the form of a matrix (institutional sectors in columns and types of instruments in rows), for the last year available: such tables can be used to analyse the behaviour of the economic agents and to evaluate the wealth of economic agents by type of financial instrument;
-
historical tables (1993-2004) in a time series form which present, for a limited number of institutional sectors, the inter-sectoral financial flows and the financial stocks, by financial instrument: these tables give a view of the evolution, over the years, in the use of financial instruments by sector and in the holding of stocks of financial instruments by the different institutional sectors.

Data presented here are an extract from the database which include the Financial Accounts together with the Financial Balance Sheets:
-
the Financial Accounts, part of the Accumulation Accounts, record, by type of instruments, the financial transactions between sectors;
-
the Financial Balance Sheets, corresponding to the final sets of information in the full sequence of the accounts describing the economic cycle, record the stocks of assets and liabilities held by the institutional sectors, and give a picture of their net worth, at the end of the accounting period.
They relate to two institutional sectors only, the General Government (S13), and Households and Non-Profit Institutions Serving Households (S14-S15):
