Abstract:
The National Transfers Accounts (NTA) system seeks to measure intergenerational transfers at the aggregate level consistent with National Income and Product Accounts. The method of estimation is shared by many countries and is depicted in the web page www.schemearts.com/proj/nta/. In this paper we describe the applied procedure in the estimation of Uruguayan NTA. Specifically, we analyze the data sources and the estimation methods. We also include the description of institutions whose characteristics lead to some methodological decisions.
