Government; financial transactions and balance sheet, market value 1990-2013

This table contains data on the general government balance sheet. The full balance is not shown: the table is limited to financial assets and liabilities (claims and debts). For each period, the starting and final positions and the mutations are displayed. The changes are distinguished in financial transactions and other changes. These are a result of agreements between parties (transactions) or have a different cause, such as revaluations or reclassifications (other changes). The data in this table have been consolidated, i.e. mutual flows are eliminated. As a result, the debts of the subsectors do not count as total government debt. Debts of, for example, the empire to the social insurers are part of the debts of the empire. For the total government debt they do not count because they are debts that the government has to the government. The terms used are in line with the National Accounts. The national accounts are based on the international definitions of the European System of Accounts (ESA 1995). To increase the accessibility of the table, in some cases more common descriptions are used instead of the terms from the National Accounts. The relevant national accounts term is then indicated in the explanatory notes. The data presented are in line with the publications on the National Accounts and the EMU publications. Financial assets and liabilities are presented at market value in this table. Data available from: Annual figures from 1990 to 2013, quarterly figures from 2005 to 2013.
