RECENT HOLDING GAINS/LOSSES
Recent period: very large movements in potential holding gains of households
2001-2006: Increase in housing prices
1995-2000: Increase then decrease of stock market prices
Example of France: the amount of holding gains is the same magnitude as Gross Household Disposable Income

Valuation of financial assets and liabilities
Information on methods used essential for economists The SNA is not very prescriptive But (naive) users think that stocks are at market prices and
flows do not contain revaluations Methods can differ between countries
Essential: inform users of the exact method used for valuing financial accounts information in the OECD database
Main concern: Households and General Government

Survey on valuation methods
OECD has surveyed non EU OECD countries + France France has accepted to test the survey Co-organised with Eurostat, who will survey EU countries Short survey focused on:
– Households – General government
x– F3 Securities other than shares– F5 Shares and other equity– F6 Life insurance reserves
Responses will be loaded in the public OECD Metastore database

First results
See Tables 2 and 3 of paper Responses from France, USA, Canada, Korea, Japan Main differences
– F3 Securities: US is conceptually at nominal value while other countries have a combination of market and nominal value, essentially based on the existence of secondary markets
– F5 Shares: All quoted shares are at market value, most countries try to revalue unquoted shares (but differences exist for government enterprises)
– F6 Insurance reserves: sources are at fair value, so market price is used (some countries include revaluations in their transactions).

Future work
EU countries will be contacted by Eurostat
Countries are given the French response as example
Countries could be asked for some clarifications
OECD will load responses in the public OECD database for financial accounts
Hopefully, termination end 2006
