Explanation of symbols

Table explanation


This table contains figures relating to the investments in tangible fixed assets.
The investments have been made by non-financial companies. A distinction is made between different types of fixed assets.

It distinguishes between seven types of tangible fixed assets:

1. Land;
2. Corporate buildings;
3. Network / Infrastructure;
4. Means of transport;
5. Computers, hardware and peripheral equipment;
6. Machinery and installations;
7. Other tangible fixed assets.

The following are disregarded:
- Investment in stock;
- Investment in foreign locations;
- The value of enterprises that have been acquired whose operational activities are barely affected.

The figures can be broken down into the companies’ activities, according to the Standard Industrial Classification 2008 (SIC 2008) and regions.

Data available from: 2009

Status of the figures:
The figures up to and including 2023 are final.

Changes as of 7 November 2025:
The provisional figures of 2024 have been added.

Changes as of 23 May 2023:
- The definite figures of 2021 have been added.
- As of 2021 the SIC sections P, Q, R and the last parts of section S with underlying SIC’s have been added to the questionnaire and the publication.

When will new figures be published?
Roughly a year after the end of the reporting year, the provisional investment figures will be published for the Total Investments in Tangible Fixed Assets for the mineral extraction, industry, energy provision, waterworks and waste management and construction business sectors. Definitive, more specific figures will be made available 18 months after the end of the reporting year for all the business sectors that have been examined, including the five business sectors named above. The figures may be updated if substantial adjustments become necessary.
