	Data source	National Central Banks and/or National Statistics Offices, ECB and Eurostat
	Contact email address	Statistical Information Request form
	Contact organisation	European Central Bank
	Contact organisation unit	DGS/ESSA/ETS

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
	Dataset last update in SDW	2021-10-04 16:25:00
	Catalog	Download the series catalogue of the dataset BP6 in CSV format, i.e. full list of series and associated metadata: Excel 2013 (zipped) or the earlier Excel versions.

LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL ENVIRONMENT
	Legal acts and other agreements	National b.o.p. and i.i.p. statistics are collected in the context of Guideline ECB/2011/23 of 9 December 2011 (as amended)

SCOPE
	Data presentation - Summary description	The dataset contains the balance of payments (b.o.p.) and the international investment position (i.i.p.) of the euro area compiled by the ECB, as well as European union aggregates compiled by Eurostat and individual EU country data. The b.o.p. is a statistical statement that summarises, for a specific period of time, the economic transactions of an economy with the rest of the world. The different accounts within the b.o.p. are distinguished according to the nature of the economic resources (e.g. goods, services, income or financial resources) provided and received. The i.i.p. is a statistical statement that shows, at a specific point in time, the value and composition of financial assets of residents of an economy that are claims on non-residents and gold bullion held as reserve assets and liabilities of residents of an economy to non-residents; The current account and capital account main components are broken down by counterpart countries. Financial transactions and positions are presented by type of investment, resident and counterpart sector, type of instrument and country of residency of the counterpart
	Data presentation - Detailed description	Detailed documentation on b.o.p/i.i.p. can be found on the ECB website

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
	Time period	Monthly and quarterly b.o.p and quarterly i.i.p.
	Statistical concepts and definitions	For information about the naming convention (series key dimensions and metadata), refer to the BP6 underlying DSD (BOP) maintained by the IMF.

STATISTICAL PROCESSING
	Adjustment	Non-adjusted as well as seasonally and working day adjusted
	Data validation	Data sent to and disseminated by the ECB have to respect a set of validation rules: (i) time consistency (monthly data summed up should be equal to data reported on a quarterly basis); (ii) geographical breakdown: i.e. intra and extra euro area transactions should sum up to transactions vis-à-vis rest of the world; (iii) reference sector: total economy should be consistent with the sum of the subsectors (S121, S12T, S13, S1P); iv) counterpart sector: follows the same intuition as the reference sector type; v) stock/flow reconciliation: stocks, transactions and other flows are interlinked: stock in period t is equal to stock in period t-1 plus transactions in period t plus other flows in period t; vi) accounting item: i.e. balance should be equal to credit minus debit etc.; vii) international accounts item: i.e. current account is equal to the sum of its components (goods, services, primary and secondary income); viii) functional category: total (financial account) is equal to direct, portfolio, other investment, financial derivatives and reserve assets. ix) maturity classification: i.e. long term and short term add up to all original maturities; and x) currency classification: i.e. for debt securities the currency breakdown of debt securities adds up to the total;
	Data revision - policy	Revisions to national data and euro area aggregates follow a pre-defined practice. Quarterly data are more extensively revised when data for the second and fourth quarters are first published; monthly data are kept consistent with quarterly data, hence revised in line with the availability/review of quarterly data.

BSI - Balance Sheet Items



ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION
	Title	BSI - MFI Balance Sheet Items
	Data source	National Central Banks (NCBs) and ECB
	Contact email address	Statistical Information Request form
	Contact organisation	European Central Bank

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
	Dataset last update in SDW	2021-10-01 10:00:03
	Catalog	Download the series catalogue of the dataset BSI in CSV format, i.e. full list of series and associated metadata: Excel 2013 (zipped) or the earlier Excel versions.

LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL ENVIRONMENT
	Institutional mandate	The framework for the collection of BSI statistics is laid down in the ECB Regulation concerning the balance sheet of the monetary financial institutions sector (ECB/2013/33). This Regulation is complemented by Guideline ECB/2014/15. More information on legal framework is available here.
	Legal acts and other agreements	Regulation ECB/2013/33 concerning the balance sheet of the monetary financial institutions sector (recast) Guideline of the European Central Bank of 4 April 2014 on monetary and financial statistics (recast) (ECB/2014/15) (2014/810/EU) Manual on MFI balance sheet statistics.

SCOPE
	Data presentation - Summary description	BSI statistics are based on either the aggregated or the consolidated balance sheet of the monetary financial institutions (MFI) sector. The aggregated balance sheet is the sum of the balance sheets of all MFIs resident in the euro area. The consolidated balance sheet is obtained by netting the aggregated balance sheet positions between MFIs in the euro area. The consolidated balance sheet provides the basis for the regular analysis of euro area monetary aggregates and counterparts.
	Data presentation - Detailed description	BSI statistics comprise: Monetary aggregates and counterparts MFI balance sheets Credit institutions and money market funds Electronic money Estimated MFI loans to NFCs by economic activity (NACE) Data Structure Definition of the BSI Dataflow is available here.
	Statistical population	All MFIs (see ECB website for a precise definition and a list of MFIs) in the euro area are legally obliged to report data from their business and accounting systems to the national central banks of the Member States where they reside. These in turn report national aggregates to the ECB. Data collection is based on a census rather than a sample. Nonetheless, national central banks can, at their discretion, offer MFIs exemptions from full reporting on a national basis, provided that the MFIs supplying a full statistical return make up at least 95% of the total national MFI balance sheet (modified census). Some monetary assets/liabilities of central government (post office,treasury) are also included in this dataset.
	Reference area coverage	Euro area, although a more limited dataset is available for non-euro area Member States.
	Sector coverage	Counterparty sectorisation is available for many of the MFIs" balance sheet positions, and follows ESA 2010 sectorisation rules.

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
	Source data type	The primary data collected from reporting agents are stock data from their business and accounting systems. Stock data refer to the last day of the period (month or quarter), either the last working day or the last calendar day, depending on national practice. Reporting agents and/or national central banks also provide the necessary data to compute the adjustments to the stock data that are needed for the derivation of transactions, namely reclassifications, and revaluation adjustments.
	Time period	Monthly or quarterly.
	Time period - collection	End of period.
	Frequency of data collection	Monthly, except for certain detailed breakdowns which are collected quarterly or annually.
	Statistical concepts and definitions	For information about the naming convention (series key dimensions and metadata), refer to the BSI underlying DSD (ECB_BSI1) maintained by the ECB.

STATISTICAL PROCESSING
	Data compilation	Aggregation and consolidation Data are aggregated across individual MFIs in each Member State by national central banks to derive national contributions to the euro area aggregated balance sheet of the MFI sector. The ECB aggregates national contributions to obtain the aggregated balance sheet of the euro area MFI sector. The ECB then nets out the inter-MFI positions from the aggregated balance sheet to obtain the consolidated balance sheet of the euro area. Finally, the computation of monetary aggregates requires the further addition of certain monetary liabilities of the central government sector (post office, treasury). Compilation of transactions Transactions for the current period are calculated by deducting the effect of factors that do not relate to transactions, namely reclassifications, revaluations and exchange rate adjustments, from the difference in stocks over the period. For further details on methodology and compilation methods see the Manual on MFI balance sheet statistics. Compilation of growth rates All growth rate computations refer to an index of notional stocks, rather than to the stock data directly. This allows developments in the series to be presented without the effects that non-transactions would have on the growth rates of stocks (see also “Compilation of transactions”). The index of notional stocks is computed as a chain index I(t)=I(t-1)x[1+F(t)/S(t-1)], where F(t) are transactions during the period and S(t-1) are stocks at the end of the previous period. For more information see the Statistical Bulletin Technical notes or Manual on MFI balance sheet statistics.
	Adjustment	The main items of the MFI consolidated balance sheet are available both in seasonally adjusted and non-seasonally adjusted form. This includes the main breakdowns of euro area monetary aggregates and counterparts. More details can be found in the background section.
	Data validation	Validation is based on the verification of balance sheet constraints, and on checks on the plausibility of developments at various levels of aggregation.
	Data revision - policy	Statistical series may be subject to revision. High-frequency data may be revised in the light of later more complete or more correct information, while methodological improvements may from time to time require earlier data to be revised.

QUALITY
	Quality management	Quality is ensured by means of a comprehensive legal framework including a sanctions regime for infringements. The framework is laid out in Regulation ECB/2013/33 concerning the balance sheet of the monetary financial institutions sector and in Guideline ECB/2014/15 on monetary and financial statistics (recast).

DISSEMINATION
	Release policy - release calendar	Publication on the 19th working day after the end of the reference month for the euro area and corresponding countries, and on the 23rd working day for EU countries outside the euro area.
	Release policy - release calendar access	See the release calendar for monetary developments in the euro area on the ECB’s website.
	Dissemination format	Statistical Data Warehouse and ECB website.
	Dissemination format - news release	Press Release on the ECB website.
