Abstract: SUMMARYThis article outlines forthcoming changes to the National Accounts and Balance of Payments. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) aims to introduce data on derivatives business of UK banks into the financial accounts and balance sheets for the 2010 Blue Book and Balance of Payments Pink Book. Revisions will go back to the start of 2006.In the National Accounts, currently only limited transaction data is published for the bank, central government and rest of the world sectors. Data for the rest of the world sector is also presented within the Balance of Payments statistics. Additional balance sheet data is published annually in Blue Book Table 4.5 and Pink Book Table FD.Derivative transactions which take place exclusively between other sectors of the economy, such as other (non-bank) financial institutions and private non-financial corporations, will be included once reliable data sources are available.
