Table explanation
This table contains figures on the government participation in public and private corporations, at economically significant amounts, for a given year. Participations are considered to be economically significant when they are larger than 0.01% of GDP. All figures are based on balance sheets at the end of a given year. Publication of this table meets one of the requirements of Directive EU 2011/85, part of the Enhanced Economic Governance package ('Six Pack') adopted by the European Council in 2011.
Data available from: situation on 31 December 2012.
Status of the figures:
Figures for 2024 are provisional. Figures for the other years are final.
Changes as of 31 October 2025:
New figures have been added for 2024 - these figures are provisional. The figures for 2023 have become final.
The 2021 and 2022 annual figures have been revised. This is because part of a government participation was incorrectly omitted from the figures.
When will new figures be published?
The provisional figures for 2025 and the final figures for 2024 will be published in June 2026.
More information on the revision policy of National Accounts can be found under 'relevant articles' under paragraph 3.
