Data issues for Euro area model
Eurostat quarterly accounts availability
- First results (only major series : in particular, GDP and contributors) are issued 45 days after the end of the quarter ;
- detailed accounts (with a rough breakdown by branch : goods, services...) are issued approx. 90 days after the end of the quarter ;
- sectoral accounts are issued approx. 100 days after the end of the quarter ; they are built separately from quarterly accounts but are theoretically consistent. They provide a breakdown by agent (households, private firms, etc.) and may thus be necessary for the model's database.
