Accounts for general government are compiled using international principles, which implies a high degree of comparability over time and between other Danish national accounts statistics as well as international government finance statistics
Comparability - geographical
There is complete comparability with government finance statistics in other countries complying with international standards, i.e. ESA2010 and SNA2008.
Comparability over time
Data are comparable according to ESA2010 from 1971 and onward.
Coherence - cross domain
There is complete comparability with other statistics in the national accounts if they comply with international standards, i.e. ESA2010 and SNA2008.
Coherence - internal
Accounts for general government are internal consistent. This is secured by the fact that all transfers between units are balanced before consolidation takes place.
