The accounts statistics for financial holding companies are, as far as possible, based on current accounting rules. Breaks can therefore occur in connection with changes in accounting legislation.
Errors and discrepancies can occur in the accounting data. These discrepancies can have a number of sources:
- Errors in the reporting institutions' accounts
- Errors in the transfer of data from the institution's primary accounts to recipients
- Different accounting and evaluation principles
- Different accounting dates for transactions
- Insufficient data from the reporting parties
- Processing errors
Due to large amounts of data and a dynamic control and revision system, published data will be regarded as preliminary until next years data for the same period is published. This means that data for the current year may be revised without this being marked in the preceeding publishing. Large and important revision however, will be commented upon in the publishing of Today's Statistics.
