Why?• Recently the ABS has had number of requests about how
ABS compiles financial accounts quarterly in a “to-whom-from-whom” (counterparty) framework
• This area of national accounting has received more attention since the global financial crisis and the G20 finance ministers “data gaps” initiative
• The note is only an introduction to the subject– Detailed compilation methods are dependent on national
institutional settings and data availability

Inter Sector Financial Relationships• The inter sector financial relationship maps can be used as a
guide to priorities and methods for data collection and compilation
• The number of institutional units in each sector is a guide to the difficulty in measuring the sector quarterly, the timeliness and possibly the reliability of the measurement
• It is clear we can’t afford thorough quarterly surveys of households or non-financial corporations
• The following is a simplification in terms of sectoring and instruments. It covers both stocks and flows.

Financial Corporations• Relatively small number of large institutions
– Setting aside the large number of small self-managed pension funds
• Maintain good accounting records• Prudential supervision for some types• We aim for complete enumeration of most types of
financial corporation• Interagency (APRA/RBA/ABS) cooperation in data
collection, quality assurance and usage.

1. Almost complete coverage of Financial Corporations
2. Data broken down by counterparty (subsectors)
3. Regulatory and ABS surveys4. Intermediaries data from
regulator used for regulatory, monetary aggregates and financial accounts

Rest of World• Financial assets, liabilities, transactions, and other flows with
rest of world are required for quarterly International Investment Flows and Position statistics.– Difficult to do financial accounts without this significant dataset
• Some recompilation from BPM6 to 2008 SNA is required• Data by domestic counterparty should exist in this dataset

Rest of World (cont.)• Note financial corporations / rest of world relationship now
has two sets of observations• Data confrontation for quality assurance of both datasets • Must decide what to publish in financial accounts
– Australia financial accounts usually consistent with IIP– Means re-balancing financial corporations– The luxury of choosing with whom to be inconsistent.

General Government• Australia is a federation: Commonwealth, State, Territory and Local
governments• However, financial management practices mean that only a handful
of agencies have significant borrowing and investment roles– Commonwealth and State Treasuries / Department of Finance– State central borrowing authorities, Australian Office of Financial
Management• A small ABS collection of about 20 agencies gives almost complete
coverage• Securities issues in a security by security database

General Government (cont.)• General government data overlaps with financial
corporations and IIP datasets– More data confrontation opportunities– More decisions about best data, including Reserve Bank versus Dept.
of Finance• Data structured in accordance with IMF GFS not sufficient
– Counterparty, instrument detail– Valuation principles, accrual standards– more explanation of differences (especially to IMF)

Non-financial Corporations and Households• Securities issuance by non-financial corporations from equity
and debt market sources (stock exchange, clearance houses)• Small survey of large corporates to track security holdings
and accounts payable / receivable– All other financing covered by other sources
• Households residual in securities markets and accounts payable / receivable

Non-financial corporations and Households (cont.)• Periodic confrontation with household wealth surveys
– Micro / macro comparisons• No non-financial corporation financial asset and liability data
available in tax system or in summary from corporate regulators
• Financial Instrument Supply / Use compilation framework mitigates lack of direct data

Residual in securities markets
Compilation in Financial instrument Supply / Use framework provides a cross check and plausible residual allocation
![Page 19: Australian Financial Accounts: O VERVIEW OF D ATA S OURCES AND M ETHODS Within a Whom to Whom Framework Amanda Seneviratne 1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070305/5514af29550346f06e8b60eb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Compilation Framework: Financial Instrument Supply / Use Tables• Ideally, independent measures of supply and use• Unconsolidated to a large extent
– Intra-household sector relations consolidated– Other intra sector asset/liabilities add value to supply / use tables– Note: ABS thinks unconsolidated sector income and financial
accounts are not meaningful.

Supply / Use Framework Example 1: Transferable Deposits
20
![Page 21: Australian Financial Accounts: O VERVIEW OF D ATA S OURCES AND M ETHODS Within a Whom to Whom Framework Amanda Seneviratne 1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070305/5514af29550346f06e8b60eb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Transferable Deposits Example• Supply data are from banking regulator (APRA)• Use data are from various data sources, including
counterparty data collected by regulator• To the extent that use data do not sum to supply, balancing
requires adjustment of weakest data source(s), in this case usually “other private non-financial corporations”
21
![Page 22: Australian Financial Accounts: O VERVIEW OF D ATA S OURCES AND M ETHODS Within a Whom to Whom Framework Amanda Seneviratne 1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070305/5514af29550346f06e8b60eb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Supply / Use FrameworkExample 2: Listed Equity of Private Non-financial Corporations
22
![Page 23: Australian Financial Accounts: O VERVIEW OF D ATA S OURCES AND M ETHODS Within a Whom to Whom Framework Amanda Seneviratne 1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070305/5514af29550346f06e8b60eb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Listed equity example• Unconsolidated• Supply from stock exchange (adjusted for SNA concepts)• Use from various sources• Balanced with weakest data source in this case the residual is
allocated to households for which there is no data source– Note: plausibility of residual is assessed
