Foreword For the third consecutive year, the National Statistics Office is publishing detailed statements of the Balance of Payments transactions and the International Investment Position of Malta in a format that conforms with the standard guidelines of methodology set by the International Monetary Fund and the European Union Statistical agency - Eurostat. The compiled tables exhibit details on the international economic and financial transactions conducted by Malta with the world, the European Union (EU) and the rest of the world countries (i.e. other than those members within the EU) between the years 1995 and 2001; as well as statistical data on the stock of external assets and liabilities that Malta had with the world during the same seven-year period under review. In addition, the tables are being accompanied by a commentary that explains the main shifts in the statistical figures registered during the year 2001 over those recorded during the same period in 2000.

COMMENTARY

1. The Balance of Payments

Malta with the World A detailed statement of the international economic and financial transactions of Malta during 2001 shows an improvement in the current account balance of Lm135.6 million, from a net negative balance of Lm209.2 million during 2000 to one of Lm73.6 million during the year under review. Contributing towards this amelioration was essentially an improvement in the net balances of both the goods account as well as the income account of the statement. In fact, as can be seen in Chart A below, the visible trade gap in the goods account narrowed by Lm76.3 million, from a net negative balance of Lm331.0 million during 2000 to one of Lm254.7 million during 2001; whereas the net negative balance in the income account shifted favourably by Lm64.2 million, from a net deficit of Lm53.1 million during 2000 to a net surplus of Lm11.1 million during the year under consideration. Also, the net positive balance in the services account improved by Lm2.4 million, from a net surplus of Lm163.7 million during 2000 to one of Lm166.2 million during 2001; while that in the current transfers account shrunk by Lm7.4 million, from a net positive balance of Lm11.2 million during 2000 to one of Lm3.8 million during the year under review.

Trade Balance Net Services Current Account Balance

Indeed, the net balance in the goods account was essentially influenced by a fall in the total imports bill of Lm263.4 million that more than offset the decline in the export receipts of Lm187.1 million recorded during the year under consideration; whereas that in the income account was favourably affected by a fall of Lm84.5 million in retained earnings that are held by non-resident entities having direct (investing) interest in locally-operating enterprises. On the other hand, the net balance in the services account was mainly affected by an improvement in the net balance of the transport account; while that in the current transfers account was particularly influenced by an increase in private transfer payments that overshadowed completely the rise in private transfer receipts recorded during the same year under analysis.

Indeed, the net negative balance in the transport account shifted favourably by Lm13.0 million, from a net deficit of Lm8.4 million during 2000 to a net surplus of Lm4.6 million during 2001; while that in the government services account shrunk by Lm1.2 million, from a net deficit of Lm3.3 million during 2000 to one of Lm2.0 million during the year under review. In the same direction, the net positive balance in the communication services account rose by Lm1.3 million, from a net surplus of Lm4.4 million during 2000 to one of Lm5.6 million during 2001. On the contrary, the net positive balance in the travel account contracted by Lm0.7 million, from a net surplus of Lm180.2 million during 2000 to one of Lm179.5 million during the year under review; whereas that in the other private business services account shifted by Lm4.3 million, from a net surplus of Lm2.6 million during 2000 to a net deficit of Lm1.7 million during 2001. Additionally, the net negative balance in the insurance services account worsened by Lm8.1 million, from a net negative balance of Lm11.8 million during 2000 to one of Lm19.8 million during the year under review. In the capital and financial account of the statement, the capital account was characterised by a net inflow of Lm0.7 million (as opposed to a net inflow of Lm8.3 million during 2000); whereas the financial account was characterised by a net inflow of Lm4.6 million (as against a net inflow of Lm165.3 million a year before). Direct investment abroad declined by Lm0.7 million, from net outflows of Lm11.4 million during 2000 to net outflows of Lm10.7 million during the year under consideration. On the other side, direct investment in Malta fell by Lm146.1 million, from net inflows of Lm272.5 million during 2000 to net inflows of Lm126.4 million during 2001. In effect, as explained earlier before, this was particularly generated by a drop of Lm84.5 million in retained earnings that are held by non-resident entities having direct investing interest in locally established enterprises; as well as by a fall in trade liabilities of Lm43.9 million that are due to direct investors abroad. Also during the year under review, the portfolio investment account was marked by a net outflow of funds of Lm196.8 million as against a net outflow of funds of Lm343.0 million during 2000. Indeed, this was contributed by lower acquisitions of foreign debt securities (that amounted to Lm180.4 million during 2001) than those acquired during the same period a year earlier (that amounted to Lm331.5 million). In contrast, however, the other investment account was characterised by net inflows of Lm201.1 million as against net inflows of Lm149.7 million during 2001. As a result of the above shifts in the current and financial accounts of the statement, the reserve assets of the country increased by Lm115.3 million as opposed to a decrease of Lm97.6 million during 2000.

2. The Current Account Statement

Malta with the European Union In an effort to provide more details about the origin and destination of the various economic and financial transactions that Malta conducts with its world trading partners, the balance of payments statement has, for the seventh year round, been compiled and presented so as to portray information about those transactions that Malta had with both the European Union (EU) as well as with the rest of the world.

Indeed, statistical indicators on the balance of payments of Malta with the EU for the year 2001 show that the current account balance of Malta with the fifteen member union improved by Lm284.9 million, from a net negative balance of Lm438.5 million during 2000 to one of Lm153.6 million during 2001. Leading towards this outcome was essentially an across-the-board improvement in the main accounts that compose the statement. In fact, as can be discerned from Chart B below, the visible trade gap contracted by Lm187.5 million, from a net deficit of Lm479.3 million during 2000 to one of Lm291.8 million during 2001; whereas the net negative balance in the income account shifted favourably by Lm68.0 million, from a net deficit of Lm69.8 million during 2000 to one of Lm1.8 million during the year under review. Also, the net positive balance in the services account rose by Lm26.9 million, from a net positive balance of Lm102.8 million during 2000 to one of Lm129.6 million during 2001; while that in the current transfers account rose by Lm2.5 million, from a net surplus of Lm7.8 million during 2000 to one of Lm10.2 million during the year under consideration.

Indeed, the favourable shift recorded in the net balance of the goods account was primarily contributed by the combined impact of a decline in expenditure on imports originating from the EU of Lm112.7 million as well as by an increase in export receipts from goods destined to the same region of Lm74.8 million; whereas that recorded in the net balance of the income account was generated by a drop in retained earnings of Lm68.5 million that are held by EU residents having direct (investing) interest in locally-operating enterprises. On the other hand, the net balance in the services account was mainly affected by an increase in the net positive balance of the travel account as well as by an improvement in the net negative balance of the transport account of the statement. In fact, the net positive balance in the travel account rose by Lm20.1 million, from a net surplus of Lm124.4 million during 2000 to one of Lm144.5 million during 2001; while the net negative balance in the transport account shifted favourably by Lm17.6 million, from a net deficit of Lm6.3 million during 2000 to a net surplus of Lm11.3 million during the year under review.

The net balance in the travel account was influenced by both a rise in travel receipts from tourists coming from EU countries of Lm17.5 million as well as by a slight drop in expenditure by Maltese travellers going to EU destinations amounting to Lm2.6 million. On the other hand, the net balance in the transport account was favourably affected by both a rise in revenue from passenger transport as well as by a rise in other transport receipts that outweighed completely the increase in expenditure on transport-related services recorded during the year under consideration. Notwithstanding this, however, the net balance in the services account was adversely influenced by a series of setbacks in the net balances of the insurance services account, the other private business services account as well as the communications services account of the statement.

Malta with the Rest of the World In contrast to the net balance registered in the current account statement of Malta with the EU, that with the rest of the world (i.e. excluding the transactions with the fifteen member union) took a different turn and deteriorated by Lm149.3 million, from a net positive balance of Lm229.3 million during 2000 to one of Lm80.0 million during the year under review. Indeed, as can be seen in Chart C below, this was generated by an across-the-board worsening in the net balances of the accounts that compose the statement. In fact, the net positive balance in the goods account shrunk by Lm111.2 million, from a net surplus of Lm148.3 million during 2000 to one of Lm37.1 million during 2001; while that in the services account decreased by Lm24.4 million, from a net surplus of Lm60.9 million during 2000 to one of Lm36.5 million during the year under consideration. Also, the net positive balance in the current transfers account shifted by Lm9.9 million, from a net surplus of Lm3.4 million during 2000 to a net deficit of Lm6.5 million during 2001; while that in the income account contracted by Lm3.8 million, from a net surplus of Lm16.7 million during 2000 to one of Lm12.9 million during the year under consideration.

The net balance in the goods account was particularly determined by a fall in exports revenue of Lm261.9 million that outweighed completely a decline in imports of Lm150.7 million registered during 2001; whereas the net balance in the services account was essentially affected by the combined outcome of a decline in the net positive balances of the travel account and the other private business services account of Lm20.9 million and Lm2.6 million respectively as well as by a rise in the net negative balance of the transport account of Lm4.6 million. On the other hand, the net balance in the current transfers account was affected by a rise in government and private transfer payments that overshadowed completely the increase recorded in the receipts side of the statement; while the net balance in the income account was particularly affected by a fall in both foreign interest income as well as wages earned by Maltese residents working in countries other than those members of the EU.

3. The International Investment Position Statement of Malta Whilst the balance of payments compilation is effectively an account of the economic and financial flows that are conducted by a country with different economies around the globe during a particular calendar year (or period), the international investment position statement can be described as a record that shows details on the stock of external financial assets and liabilities of a country vis-à-vis the world at the end of a calendar year (or period). As can be discerned in Chart D below, the total assets held abroad by residents of Malta at the end of 2001 amounted to Lm4,240.4 million; a decrease of Lm456.8 million or 9.7 per cent over the total assets held at the end of 2000 of Lm4,697.2 million. On the other hand, the total amount of liabilities that were due by resident entities to non-residents abroad at the end of the same year amounted to Lm4,114.9 million; a decline of Lm505.7 million or 10.9 per cent over the total liabilities due at the end of 2000 of Lm4,620.6 million. As a result, the net amount of assets held by resident entities at the end of 2001 rose by Lm49.0 million or 63.9 per cent, from a net amount of Lm76.6 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm125.6 million at the end of the year under consideration.

Direct investment abroad rose by Lm24.2 million or 27.2 per cent, from a total of Lm88.9 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm113.1 million at the end of 2001; whereas direct investment in Malta rose by Lm108.4 million or 10.4 per cent, from a position of Lm1,039.2 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm1,147.6 million at the end of the year under consideration. Indeed, the direct investment abroad was affected by an increase in equity capital and retained earnings (in entities established abroad) of Lm26.3 million; whereas the direct investment in Malta was influenced by the combined effect of a rise in equity capital and reinvested earnings of foreign-owned enterprises of Lm78.5 million as well as by an increase in other capital transactions of Lm29.9 million. Similarly, the total amount of portfolio investment assets that were held abroad by resident entities at the end of 2001 rose by Lm205.3 million or 18.1 per cent, from a position of Lm1,136.2 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm1,341.5 million at the end of the year under review. In fact, this was generated by the dual effect of an increase in money market instruments held by the banking sector of Lm266.4 million as well as by an increase in equity securities held by the private sector of Lm16.7 million. On the contrary, the total amount of local portfolio investment assets held by non-residents at the end of 2001 reached a figure of Lm41.5 million; a total that is (almost) equivalent to that reached at the end of 2000 of Lm41.9 million. In contrast, the total amount of other investment assets held abroad by resident entities dropped by Lm802.5 million or 28.4 per cent, from a position of Lm2,828.0 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm2,025.5 million at the end of the year under consideration. This was mainly caused by a fall in short-term assets held by the banking sector of Lm705.3 million as well as by a drop in currency and deposits held abroad by the same (banking) sector of Lm85.9 million. Likewise, the total amount of other investment liabilities declined by Lm613.7 million or 17.3 per cent, from a position of Lm3,539.5 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm2,925.8 million at the end of the year under review. In fact, this was primarily contributed by a drop in short-term liabilities due by the banking sector of Lm443.6 million as well as by a fall in long-term loans due by the same (banking) sector of Lm138.4 million. As a result of the shifts recorded in both the current and the financial transactions of the country, the reserve assets increased by Lm116.3 million or 18.1 per cent, from a total of Lm644.1 million at the end of 2000 to one of Lm760.4 million at the end of the year under consideration.

Balance of Payments / International Investment Position Metadata

1. Introduction

The collection, compilation and presentation of the Balance of Payments (BOP) statement of Malta has been the responsibility of the National Statistics Office (NSO) since 1954, the year when such data started to be published by the statistical authorities in Malta. Since 1993, the compilation process has been enhanced by the participation of the Central Bank of Malta. The Bank, through its Balance of Payments (Data Compilation Section), co-operates actively with the NSO in the collection, vetting and compilation of b.o.p. data throughout the year. The b.o.p. statement is compiled on a transactions basis. Both the current and the capital and financial accounts are published quarterly and annually. The CBM has an additional role in the b.o.p. compilation process. It collects data on cash-based transactions between residents and non-residents, as recorded by local banks on a monthly basis. It also collects and compiles data on the external financial assets and liabilities of the various sectors of the Maltese economy. The NSO and CBM have shared competency in the compilation of the International Investment Position (IIP). In 1999, the NSO and CBM undertook to align b.o.p. and related data with international standards. Data covering the years 1995 onwards have been revised and reclassified in accordance with the fifth edition of the IMF’s balance of payment’s manual (BPM5). 2. Statistical System 2.1 Type of collection system The type of data collection system used to compile b.o.p. statistics is a mixed system based on enterprise survey data, a partial settlements system, customs data and other data sources. The partial settlements system captures cash-based transactions between residents and non-residents that pass through the local banking system. The data collected on services and the financial account are used in conjunction with other data sources. Another important element of the collection system is the quarterly enterprise survey based on the top companies operating in the various economic sectors of the national economy and an annual survey sent to an even larger number of companies. This survey covers service transactions of these enterprises and their financial account transactions. The changes in the short-term assets and liabilities of non-financial enterprises are derived from stocks statistics that is the changes in such assets and liabilities as shown in the companies’ balance sheet positions from year to year. Merchandise trade data is provided to the NSO by the Government’s Customs department. Exports are reported f.o.b. (free on board) while imports are given on a c.i.f. (cost, insurance and freight) basis. Financial account transactions of the banking sector are derived from changes in the stock of assets and liabilities as reported by banking institutions to the CBM’s in their financial returns, which are submitted to the CBM’s Banking Supervision Office on a monthly and quarterly basis. Data on the current account transactions of the banking institutions are derived from their profit and loss statements.

In addition, further statistical information on specific current and financial account transactions from various Government departments is obtained. Data on the external reserves are submitted by the CBM’s Finance Office on a quarterly basis. Other information provided by the finance department include revaluation adjustments, investment income and service payments effected by the CBM. The IIP is compiled for all the various economic sectors of the economy. Details on data sources, concepts, methods and the coverage of the IIP are given in section 12 below. All b.o.p and IIP information submitted by reporting agents (except for the banking sector) includes a geographical regional breakdown of services, financial account transactions and stock positions. In the case of merchandise trade data, reported by the Trade section of the NSO, a complete country breakdown is provided. Additional sources of information for b.o.p. purposes include: • Data on loans and portfolio investment abroad from the CBM’s BOP office. • Newspaper clippings on BOP issues and developments. • Annual financial reports of non-financial enterprises. 2.2 Availability of data B.o.p. data on a transactions basis in line with the IMF BPM5 is available quarterly. This is available before the end of three months following the end of the relevant quarter. In addition, the current account is also being compiled with a geographical subdivision, comprising the EU and the rest of the world. External reserves are compiled on a daily basis by the CBM and made available to the b.o.p. compilers on a quarterly basis. The IIP data is being compiled on an annual basis classified by instrument and by sector. However, the information submitted does not include a geographical breakdown. 2.3 Data Controls Formal checking and vetting of enterprise survey responses is carried out on a regular basis. Data is verified using company balance sheets; permits issued by the Capital Flows Section of the CBM’s BOP Office and newspaper clippings amongst others. Consistency checks of corporate data are built into the BOP software program for enterprises. The banking institutions’ own financial transactions are derived from the change in their stock positions adjusted for exchange rate changes. Large movements in stock positions are queried by the CBM with the reporting institutions. On an aggregate level, checks are also undertaken to ensure consistency between data received from enterprise survey questionnaires and data received from banking institutions covering transactions of the corporate sector. Particular attention is paid to the magnitude of the errors and omissions item and to large transactions that significantly depart from past

63

trends. The compilers seek as much as possible to find the underlying cause of such movements in the data. 2.4 Revision Policy Quarterly b.o.p. accruals data is revised on a quarterly basis. The previous year data remains subject to revision. Data is considered as final once published in the annual NSO publication– “Balance of Payments” which is usually published one year after the end of the reporting period. 3. Goods 3.1 Specific features of data collection • General Merchandise - The main source for merchandise trade data is the trade statistics

compiled by the trade section of the NSO from records received from the Customs department. Adjustments for coverage are subsequently made by the BOP compiler on both imports (which are reported by Customs on a c.i.f. basis) as well as exports. Thus, merchandise trade data are compiled on a f.o.b. basis.

• The adjustments that are made to the customs data are also based on information

obtained through the issue of ad hoc letters to various respondents. In addition, ship repair and shipbuilding carried out in Malta is also included.

• Repairs on Goods - Data on repairs of goods is collected from the quarterly survey of

private and public entities. It essentially includes information about income earned on aircraft repairs carried out locally, as well as expenditure on air and seacraft repairs carried out abroad.

• Goods procured in ports by carriers - Statistical data on goods sold in domestic ports to

non-resident carriers is derived from the trade statistics, whereas data on goods purchased by resident entities in foreign ports is derived from the quarterly survey of resident shipping and airline companies.

• Non-monetary gold - Data for non-monetary gold is derived from trade statistics. 3.2 Definition Goods data conforms with the definitions set out in IMF BPM5. Imports and exports are adjusted on a f.o.b. basis and merchandise trade statistics according to country of destination are also compiled. 3.3 Deviation There are no serious deviations from IMF BPM5 except for transactions related to ship-repair and shipbuilding which are included as part of general merchandise.

3.4 Estimation methods Where shipment data (insurance and freight) is not available separately, the shipment content of the merchandise import c.i.f. value is taken as 10% (see sub-section 4.1 below). 4. Services 4.1 Specific features of data collection Transportation - Data for transportation services is subdivided into three identifiable categories, namely: passenger, freight and other transportation. Data on receipts and payments for passenger carriage is primarily retrieved from the quarterly b.o.p. enterprise survey carried out for both shipping and airline companies (including their representative agencies operating in Malta). Data on revenue from freight is derived from the same survey. However, for freight payments, where shipment data (insurance and freight) is not available separately, an estimate of 10 per cent of the value of imports (c.i.f.) is made. Of this estimate, 90 per cent is allocated to freight and the remainder to the insurance payments item (which is included in the Current Transfers Account). A statistical adjustment is made for freight on imports carried by domestic carriers. Other transportation services are obtained from the b.o.p quarterly enterprise survey together with specific data requests sent to the public authorities such as the Malta International Airport, Malta Air Traffic Services and the Malta Maritime Authority. Travel -Data on gross earnings from tourism and data on gross expenditures by residents travelling abroad are derived mainly from foreign currency transactions reported by banking institutions and other authorised dealers to the CBM on a monthly basis. During a joint exercise between the NSO and the CBM, carried out in 1989, it transpired that there was significant and persistent under-recording of tourism-related foreign exchange transactions reported through the local banks. Subsequently, foreign consultants1 carried out a study to identify the extent of the under-reporting. Consequently, an upward adjustment of 15 percent on gross travel receipts reported by the banks was recommended and is being implemented Other services - The primary source of data for other services is the quarterly and annual b.o.p. survey for non-financial enterprises. The data sources for government transactions are the Ministry of Finance and the CBM’s settlements based system. The latter is also the source of data for transactions carried out by the personal sector. The service transactions of the banking sector are obtained from their profit and loss statements. 4.2 Definition The reporting of services transactions conforms to the definitions and guidelines set out in IMF BPM5. 1 Howarth & Howarth (UK) Ltd and P.A. Cambridge Ltd (1989)

65

4.3 Deviations There are no serious deviations from IMF BPM5 except for transactions in connection with financial services which are being classified under other services. 4.4 Estimation Methods Data from the annual ITS survey (international trade in services) for enterprises is used as a benchmark for the further breakdown of service transactions. Estimates for non-respondents are extrapolated from historical data. As mentioned above (under 4.1) gross travel receipts reported by the banks are inflated by 15 percent. 5. Current Transfers 5.1 Specific features of data collection The General Government - Data on official transfers, which are shown under this account, is obtained from the CBM’s monthly b.o.p statement based on the settlements system. Other sectors - Aggregated data on personal remittances, pensions and other transfers are obtained on a quarterly basis from the CBM. Also included under this classification are non-life insurance premiums and claims that are reported by private and public entities in a quarterly survey. Additional information is also obtained through specific data requests. 6. Income 6.1 Specific features of data collection and definitions 6.1.1 Compensation of Employees: Data is obtained from the enterprise survey and from data collected by the CBM in its monthly b.o.p. cash statement. 6.1.2 Income on direct investment There are two main sources of data on income from direct investment. The enterprise survey provides information on re-invested earnings, dividends and interest income. The investment income of credit and financial institutions is obtained from the banks’ profit and loss statements which are submitted to the CBM. Income is classified by type of financial instrument. A limited geographical classification -- EU or rest of the world – is also provided. Income on equity is recorded in accordance with IMF BPM5 recommendations. Re-invested earnings of enterprises are reported on a quarterly basis in the b.o.p. questionnaire and are based on transactions reported in their management accounts. The re-invested earnings of banking institutions are based on stock statistics and are derived from their balance sheets every quarter.

66

Additionally, an offsetting entry in the financial account under direct investment is recorded for all undistributed profits disclosed by the reporting entities. Also, income on inter-company debt is recorded as income on direct investment. The enterprise surveys indicate whether the income on loans is derived from a foreign parent company, a subsidiary or other non-resident sources. Income on debt securities between affiliates is recorded as income on direct investment. In order to qualify as an affiliate (and thus be recorded as income on direct investment) an enterprise should have a minimum of 10 per cent shareholding by another entity (see 8.2 below for detailed explanation). If any income on debt is not yet paid/received an offsetting entry is reported as receivables/payables under direct investment. 6.1.3 Income on portfolio investment There are two main sources of data on income on portfolio investment. The enterprise survey provides information on interest on bonds, notes and money market instruments as well as dividends on equity. The investment income of credit and financial institutions is obtained from the banking institutions’ profit and loss statements submitted to the CBM. The income on portfolio investment reported by banking institutions is classified according to the type of portfolio investment instrument. Information on the classification according to sector is also available. The geographical classification is limited to two regions, the EU and the rest of the world. The criterion applied in this regard, is the country of issuer. Income on equity and debt securities follows the definitions recommended in IMF BPM5 except for the interest accrued of the “Other” sectors. Dividends are obtained from the enterprise survey and the profit and loss statements of banking institutions. 6.1.4 Income on other investment There are three main sources for data on income on other investment. The non-financial enterprises provide information on interest income and expenditure through the b.o.p. enterprise survey which also includes information on income from trade credits. Income on other investment of the banking institutions is obtained from their profit and loss statements . The income of the personal sector is captured from the CBM’s monthly b.o.p statement based on the settlements system. The Ministry of Finance provides data on interest payments of the Government’s external debt. Income on the external reserve assets of the CBM is provided by the Bank’s Finance office and is recorded monthly on an accruals basis. 6.2 Definition The definitions of IMF BPM5 are followed except in the case of the interest accrued for other sectors 6.3 Deviations from agreed definitions The accruals principle is not followed for all sectors of the economy. Notwithstanding the definitions applied in the collection of information, investment income is presently being compiled without distinction being made between the types of investment.

7. Capital Account 7.1 Specific features of data collection As from 1995, following the recommendations set out in the IMF BPM5, the data related to current and capital transfers was disaggregated. Hence, data on emigrants’ capital transfers, debt forgiveness as well as government grants are being included under the capital account. Data on government grants is provided by the Ministry of Finance; while other related data is obtained from the CBM. 7.2 Definition The definitions of IMF BPM5 are adhered to. 7.3 Deviations from agreed definitions. There are no deviations from agreed definitions. 8. Direct Investment 8.1 Specific features of data collection The enterprise survey is used to collect foreign direct investment (FDI) data from the corporate sector. The enterprise questionnaires are designed in such a way so as to identify all inter-company transactions, including loans and trade credits. Data relating to the banking institutions is obtained from their balance sheets submitted through the CBM. Information on the acquisition of property (real estate) in Malta by non-residents is provided by the Ministry of Finance. Acquisition of property by Maltese abroad is derived from exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows Section of the CBM. Direct investment abroad by households is captured through the CBM’s monthly b.o.p statement based on the settlements system and exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows Section of the CBM. . The business register for the largest companies in Malta has been constructed on the basis of detailed information obtained from the CBM’s monthly b.o.p statement based on the settlements system. In addition further information is obtained from the exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows Section of the CBM, historical data from the enterprise survey, trade data, annual reports of companies and newspaper clippings. 8.2 Definition The 10 per cent ownership criterion is used to distinguish between direct and portfolio investment. This guideline is applied to identify types of investment (that is direct or portfolio) relationships in the corporate sector. The enterprise survey is structured in such a way as to indicate the directional principle for the FDI relationship with the exception of trade credits and debits. Inter-company loans and trade credits/debits with related enterprises are included in FDI. For the banking sector, the direction of FDI is determined on a case by case basis by the BOP compiler. Special Purpose Entities (SPEs) are currently considered as non-residents and are included under other investment - currency and deposits.

68

All transactions between affiliated companies are included under direct investment. Moreover, an offsetting entry for re-invested earnings is shown as part of income and included under FDI. As a general rule, direct investment transactions are recorded when the transactions occur. Geographical allocation of FDI is based on the country of residence of the parent, subsidiary or affiliate as the case may be. 8.3 Deviations from agreed definitions There are no serious deviations from the agreed definition except for trade credits/debits with subsidiaries which are being included under direct investment in Malta. Furthermore, the accruals principle for certain FDI instruments is not adhered to fully. Information on the switching of overseas assets between the FDI, PI (Portfolio Investment) and OI (Other Investment) categories by households is not available. 9. Portfolio Investment (PI) 9.1 Specific features of data collection Data on portfolio investment are collected on an aggregated basis. Surveys are used to collect PI data on the corporate sector. Data on the banking sector are obtained from the balance sheets of the banking institutions which are submitted to the CBM. Information on the PI transactions of households is obtained from exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows section of the CBM and supplemented by information obtained through the CBM’s monthly b.o.p. statements which are based on a settlements system. Domestic equity and debt securities purchased by non-residents on the Malta Stock Exchange are reported directly by the Stock Exchange. 9.2 Definition The compilation of PI transactions is generally in line with the IMF BPM5. However, the accruals principle applies only to PI instruments held by the banking sector. Equity securities, bonds and notes as well as money market instruments are included in the definition. Service charges, fees and commissions are recorded separately under services. 9.3 Deviations from agreed data The only deviation from the IMF BPM5 is the limited application of the accruals principle. Information on the switching of overseas assets between the FDI, PI and OI categories by households is not available. 10. Other Investment (OI) 10.1 Specific features of data collection The enterprise survey is used to record the OI transactions of enterprises. Data on the banking sector is derived from their balance sheets submitted to the CBM. The household sector is captured through the settlement system and exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows section of the CBM. Trade credits are reported in the quarterly b.o.p. enterprise survey. Other related information is obtained from the balance sheets of the banking institutions.

69

10.2 Definitions OI transactions are generally recorded in line with IMF BPM5 but the accruals principle is not applied except in the case of banking sector transactions. Transactions related to repurchase agreements and trade credits are included under OI. 10.3 Deviations from agreed data See 10.2 above. 11 Reserve Assets 11.1 Specific features of data collection The Finance Office of the CBM is the source for data on reserve assets. Reserve assets are available by instrument. Changes in reserve assets are compiled on a quarterly basis and these are offset against any unrealised gains/losses. Reserve assets are compiled in accordance with the gross concept. The amortisation of discount and premium securities includes offsetting entries for accruals. Instruments other than these types do not include such offsetting entries for accruals when required. No reversible gold transactions are carried out. The CBM transacts in financial derivatives but these are not shown separately. 11.2 Definitions The definition of reserve assets is in line with IMF BPM5. Reserve assets are under the effective control of the CBM. The external assets position of the central government and/or the Ministry of Finance which is held with the monetary authorities is included in the CBM’s reserve assets. Reserve assets include highly liquid claims on non-residents in foreign currency. Positions in local currency are excluded. Other reserve assets include gold, SDRs (Special Drawing Rights) and Reserve Positions in the IMF. 11.3 Deviations from agreed data See sub section 11.2 12. International Investment Position 12.1 Specific features of data collection and definitions 12.1.1 General The i.i.p. is compiled annually to show the position at the end of the calendar year ( of the reporting period). However, not all financial account items for each sector are compiled. The following is a breakdown by sector of the financial account items which are compiled:

Page 83: Balance of Payments - NSO Home€¦ · 1. The Balance of Payments Malta with the World A detailed statement of the international economic and financial transactions of Malta during

70

• Banking sector - compiled for all financial account items except for financial derivatives. • Non- financial enterprises (including public companies) – based on the top 700

companies - is compiled for all financial account items except for financial derivatives. • Households – the only information available with regard to households is the amount of

borrowing/lending with non-residents. • Central Government - all financial account items are available with the exception of trade

credits and debits. • Reserve assets are included. 12.1.2 Direct Investment (DI) The i.i.p. of the banking sector is compiled by instrument. The main sources of data collection are the banking schedules submitted to Banking Supervision. There are no significant deviations from the definitions contained in the 5th BoP Manual of the International Monetary Fund (IMF BPM5). The valuation criteria used for equity securities are market values but book values are used for the equity of those banks which are not listed on the Malta Stock Exchange (MSE). However, all other direct investment instruments such as inter-company loans are recorded at the end of period exchange rates. A reconciliation exercise is carried out taking into account the actual price movements in the equity of listed banks. The banks report a total revaluation amount due to exchange rate movements for all the financial accounts. An estimate is then made to allocate this amount to the different financial accounts and the various financial instruments. The direct investment stock of the non-financial enterprises (including public companies) is compiled by instrument. Data is compiled from the quarterly BoP enterprise survey submitted to the NSO. The stock of long-term financial instruments with the exception of loans from abroad is derived from accumulated flows. Short-term instruments are compiled from real stock positions. Equity securities are valued at book value but all other direct investment instruments are recorded on the basis of market value. A reconciliation exercise is carried out for the loans of the public entities. The Government Sector has no direct investment abroad and no data is available for the household sector. 12.1.3 Portfolio Investment (PI) The PI stock of the banking sector is compiled by instrument. No maturity breakdown is available. As in the case of FDI stock, the PI position is available from the banking returns submitted to Banking Supervision. Trading securities are valued at the lower of book value or market value but investment securities are based on book value. As already indicated for FDI stocks, an estimate to apportion the total revaluation amount is made.

71

The PI stock position of the non-financial enterprises (including public companies) is compiled by instrument. No maturity breakdown is available. Data for this sector is compiled from the quarterly BoP enterprise survey submitted to NSO. The initial PI stock position is compiled in accordance with IMF BPM5. However, subsequent stock data is based on accumulated flows. No reconciliation exercise is carried out for PI. The Government Sector is made available by instrument but there is no maturity breakdown. Real stock positions are collected using the government’s Annual Financial Report and from quarterly data requests to the Malta Stock Exchange (MSE) on government securities held by non-residents. Market valuation criteria are used and the compilation of the government’s PI position is in line with the definitions of IMF BPM5. A reconciliation exercise is carried out taking price changes into consideration. No data is available for the household sector. 12.1.4 Financial derivatives Data on financial derivatives is not shown separately. 12.1.5 Other Investment (OI) The OI stock of the banking sector is compiled by instrument. No maturity breakdown is available. As in the case of FDI and PI stocks, the OI position is available from the banking returns submitted to Banking Supervision. Market valuation criteria are used. As already indicated for FDI and PI stocks, an estimate to apportion the total revaluation amount is made. The OI stock position of the non-financial enterprises (including public companies) is compiled by instrument. No maturity breakdown is available. Data for this sector is compiled from the quarterly BoP enterprise survey submitted to NSO. The stock of long-term financial instruments with the exception of loans from abroad of public enterprises is derived from accumulated flows. However, short-term assets and liabilities are compiled from real stock positions A reconciliation exercise is carried out for the loans of the public sector enterprises. The Government Sector is compiled by instrument with the exception of trade credits and debits which are not available. Data for loans is available but there are no maturity classifications. Data on OI is compiled from specific data requests sent to the Ministry of Finance and information provided by the Statistics office of the CBM. Market valuation criteria are used and a reconciliation exercise is carried out taking exchange rate movements into consideration. The only data available for the household sector are loans from non-residents. These are compiled on a quarterly basis and based on exchange control forms submitted to the Capital Flows Section at CBM. 12.1.6 Reserve assets The source for this data is the Finance office of the CBM. A reconciliation is made for price and exchange rate movements. 12.2 Intended harmonisation A proposed DR (direct reporting) data collection system is due to be implemented whereby the different sectors would report a full i.i.p. including a reconciliation for price and exchange rate movements.
