Database Specific
Database Specific Abstract AbstractThe dataset on Institutional investors' assets and liabilities (T7II) constitutes an attempt to better integrate these data in the framework of the System of National Accounts (SNA) and to meet the key recommendations 13-15 outlined in the report The Financial Crisis and Information Gaps, endorsed by the G-20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors in November 2009, oriented to explore gaps and strengthening data collection, in particular, of non-bank financial institutions. While recommendations 13-14 focus on the cross-border exposure of non-bank financial institutions, recommendation 15 promotes the compilation and dissemination of sector balance sheets and flow of funds, stressing that data on non-bank financial institutions should be considered as a particular priority.

The OECD Member countries which are still producing national accounts according to the SNA 1993 / ESA 1995 will change over to to the new SNA 2008 / ESA 2010 over the upcoming months/years.
Data in the Institutional Investors' assets and liabilities dataset are consistent with those reported in the Financial Balance Sheets, unless exceptions specified in the metadata at the specific country-level.
The data collection is limited to quarterly (Q) data which is sourced from the official national institution producing quarterly data.
