The National Accounts are relevant to anyone involved in economic matters ranging from the economic ministries use of the National Accounts in planning, analysis, forecasting and modeling purposes for industry organizations and other similar organizations, to the general interest in knowledge of the economy¶s structure and development. The National Accounts division is evaluating feedback from users at an ongoing basis.
User Needs
Annual national accounts figures form an important part of the basis for analyses of the economic structure of the country and provide an opportunity to compare the economy in Denmark with the economy in other countries. National accounts figures therefore have a broad user group, including citizens seeking information about society and public and private institutions that actively use figures from the national accounts in their ongoing tasks.
Other key users are the Ministry of Finance, Danmarks Nationalbank, research institutions and financial analysts. In addition, international organizations such as the IMF, the OECD, the World Bank, the UN, and Eurostat use national accounts data in their statistics and analyses.
User Satisfaction
There are no actual user satisfaction surveys for the national accounts, but Statistics Denmark has several forums where central users of the national accounts and adjacent statistics have the opportunity to participate, for example:
Economic Statistics User Committee
The Economic Statistics User Committee has the following general tasks:
- discuss and evaluate the results achieved and the planned development of economic statistics
- discuss users' use of economic statistics and their need for new statistics
- discuss the quality, documentation, and dissemination of economic statistics
Read more about the Economic Statistics User Committee, where the commissariat and member list are available in Danish.
Data completeness rate
The completeness rate of transmitted data to Eurostat is very high.
