Abstract: A conceptual reflection will be carried out and a practical and methodological guide will be provided to the work undertaken with the aim of updating for 2005 a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) constructed for 2001 as a database for a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model for the Azores. The construction of a similar SAM to support an application of the same model for Portugal is also part of that same work.A top-down approach will be adopted, and the study will adhere to the principle that databases for national and regional models (namely SAMs) should be consistent with national and regional accounts. A Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) for 2005 as a database for a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model for the Azores; a similar SAM to support an application of the same model for Portugal.
