It is designed to be used in conjunction with the table entitled 'Annual non-financial accounts by institutional sector (Expenditure)’. The presentation is on a country-by-country basis. Users are recommended to select one country (or area) at a time in the ‘Reference area’ filter in order to view the full sequence of non-financial accounts.
