Table explanation


This table contains figures on non-financial balance sheets. The balance sheets show the market value of non-financial assets. Changes in the value of non-financial assets are also presented in this table. These changes are, for example, the result of price changes or the result of purchases minus sales of non-financial assets.

Non-financial balance sheets are part of the National Accounts. The balance sheets are presented by different types of assets for the economy as a whole and for the different institutional sectors in the Dutch economy.

Description topics

Changes in non-financial balance sheet
This item shows the changes in the market value of non-financial assets in one year. The closing balance sheet of a year equals the opening balance sheet of that year including the sum of all changes.
Statistical discrepancy
A statistical discrepancy appears when the closing balance sheet of non-financial assets does not correspond to the opening balance sheet and the changes in non-financial assets. Statistical discrepancies arise during a benchmark revision because the capital stock is determined at a point in time when investment data are still provisional. This makes it impossible to create mutually consistent statistics. With respect to inventories, statistical discrepancies occur because firms have to provide the relevant data for their opening balance sheet as well as their closing balance sheet. When the opening balance sheet of a year differs from the closing balance sheet of the previous year, the difference is registered as a statistical discrepancy.
