Index of tables in chapter 8: Other Monetary Financial Institutions (data from euro area statistical returns)

CHANGES MADE TO THE SERIES FROM JUNE 2005

This chapter includes credit institutions (along with money market funds), although with an alternative presentation to that of Chapter 4. Its tables are based on Rule seventy-one and Annex VII of CBE 4/4004 (to apply IFRS to credit institutions), approved on 22 December 2004, which refer to the EMU statistical requirements. Although the returns have not been changed significantly, they have been affected by the new accounting rules. Accordingly, although these tables continue to be updated, there have been some changes as a consequence of the entry into force of the new Circular. The most relevant are: a) savings accounts, classified until May 2005 as deposits redeemable at notice up to three months (column 12 of Table 8.44 and columns 6 and 12 of Table 8.9, among others), are now included within overnight deposits (column 9 of Table 8.44 and columns 3 and 9 of Table 8.9, among others). This change is reflected in the tables of the interest rates of these instruments (Tables 9 and 15 of Chapter 18 relating to the interest rates of credit institutions); and b) the return to the balance sheet of some of the securitised assets that had been removed from the balance sheet in application of the rules in force until the approval and entry into force of CBE 4/2004. This change has led to an exceptional increase in the amount of credit (column 6 of Table 8.41 and column 6 of Table 8.2, among others) and in time deposits (column 6 of Table 8.42 and column 6 of Table 8.3, among others).
