Abstract: The availability of a firm-level database that is representative of the productive sector of an economy on an aggregate scale is increasingly important to analyse the heterogeneity of different economic variables at different levels of aggregation (for instance, by region, firm size or sector). This paper seeks, first, to evaluate the representativeness of the Banco de España’s Integrated Central Balance Sheet Database (Integrated CBSO database or CBI by its Spanish initials) for conducting regional analysis with firm-level data and, second, to analyse the differences in firm size distribution between the Spanish regions.
