4. 4 FISIM - Concept Bank interest receivable SNA interest receivable FISIM Loans Bank interest payable FISIM Deposits SNA interest payable

5. 5 FISIM - Concept FISIM L = FISIM on loans FISIM D = FISIM on deposits r L = lending rate r D = deposit rate rr = reference rate Y L = stock of loans Y D = stock of deposits r L Y L = actual bank interest receivable on loans r D Y D = actual bank interest payable on deposits rrY L (rrY D ) = SNA interest on loans (deposits) Record in allocation of primary income account

6. 6 FISIM - Concept Reference rate Between interest rates on loans and deposits No service element Reflects risk and maturity structure of deposits and loans One reference rate per currency One method Average of the ratio of interest payable on deposits to the stock of deposits and ratio of interest receivable on loans to the stock of loans

7. 7 FISIM - Concept Allocation Some portion of domestically-produced FISIM to households Final consumers (final consumption expenditure) Owners of dwellings Owners of unincorporated enterprises Same for imports of FISIM Intermediate consumption

8. 8 FISIM - Estimation Data sources Domestically-produced FISIM If data on average stocks of loans and deposits and interest by sector from monetary authorities are available Calculate FISIM on loans to households sector Owners of dwellings (dwelling loans) Owners of unincorporated enterprises Other loans (final consumption expenditure) Calculate FISIM on deposits to households sector Owners of unincorporated enterprises (intermediate consumption) Deposits as final consumers (final consumption expenditure) Bottom up method Intermediate consumption

9. 9 FISIM - Estimation Complete breakdown of data not always available Compute total FISIM on loans and deposits for households Allocate FISIM on loans to Owners of dwellings (dwelling loans) Owners of unincorporated enterprises Other loans (final consumption expenditure) Using indicators such as breakdown of data on loans from other sources Intermediate consumption

10. 10 FISIM - Estimation Allocate FISIM on deposits to Owners of unincorporated enterprises (intermediate consumption) Households as final consumers (final consumption expenditure) Using indicators from other sources such as Ratio of stocks of deposits to VA for smallest size corporations Ratio of stocks of deposits to turnover for smallest size corporations Other solutions? Equal split? Professional judgement All FISIM on deposits to households as final consumers

11. 11 FISIM - Estimation Imports of FISIM Data on stock of loans and deposits and interest on loans and deposits from rest of world account Reference rate Total FISIM on loans and deposits Allocate FISIM on loans and deposits to households sector according to distribution of domestically- produced FISIM Lack of data by currency to calculate imports of FISIM seems to be a problem in many countries

12. 12 FISIM volume measures - Estimation Need to remove effects of changes in price from current-price FISIM – volume measures Deflation method preferable to output indicator method Deflate stock of each type of loan and deposit using general price indexes GDP deflator (excluding FISIM) Final domestic demand deflator (excluding FISIM) All-items CPI Calculate base period margin of each type of loan and deposit Base period margin on loan (deposit) = difference between interest rate on loan (deposit) and reference rate Apply base period margin on loan (deposit) to deflated stock of loan (deposit) Aggregate to obtain volume measures of FISIM
