Output indicators of statistical action “International travel statistics”

Explanation

The data are collected through statistical models built on the information gathered via the anonymous mobile

positioning method on the cross-border movement of passengers over the Estonian border. The mobile positioning

system is used in order to register a person’s visit to a foreign country on the basis of phone roaming in the coverage

area of the foreign mobile operator during the person’s stay outside the country of residence. The methodology was

developed jointly by Eesti Pank, the University of Tartu and OÜ Positium LBS.

The data are collected and processed by OÜ Positium LBS, with which Eesti Pank has entered into a public

cooperation contract.

Eesti Pank uses the international travel statistics as an input for balance of payments in the calculation of travel

services exports and imports for the current account.

The need to present aggregated data has not been taken into account in the description of the statistical action, as

this is voluntary for the Member States.

The need to present data on individual banking groups has not been taken into account in the description of the

Register-based continuation of the time series of the statistical action “Estonian Household Finance and Consumption Survey”

Methodological standard:

ECB Manual of Procedures for the Conduct of the Household Finance and Consumption Survey (HFCS)

As Estonia had joined the euro area, in 2013-2014 Eesti Pank organised the pan-Estonian Household Finance and

Consumption Survey (HFCS) within the framework of the ESCB research network. The HFCS is conducted in

standard form by all euro area countries and this survey is carried out on a regular basis with a maximum interval of

three years.

The coordinated household survey covering the euro area eliminates the deficit in the micro-level data describing the

financial behaviour of households. This, in its turn, facilitates the implementation of a single monetary policy and

helps to ensure financial stability in the euro area. The ECB is responsible for compiling a single database for the

euro area and calculating the macro-level indicators thereof.

The primary objective of HFCS is to collect structural micro-level data giving an overview of the assets and financial

liabilities of households. The data collected by the survey on household assets, debt, income and consumption give

an overview on several aspects of economic structure and thereby provide important input into the implementation of

the central bank policies, ranging from monetary policy to financial stability and payment systems. Information about

the distribution of wealth, debt and income is very important in order to analyse better the transmission mechanisms

of macroeconomic shocks.

Both the interview method and information from various registers are used in parallel for the survey, whereas a

register-based survey is repeated once a year in the interests of better presentation of the dynamics of time series.

For register-based surveys, information is requested from credit institutions, leasing and life insurance companies,

Estonian Central Securities Depository, Land Register, Tax and Customs Board, Health Insurance Fund, Social

Insurance Board, Unemployment Insurance Fund, etc. Register-based data are requested from the persons

belonging to the sample of the 2013-2014 survey.

Outcome of statistical action “Collection and reorganisation of micro

components of consumer price observations”

The collection of consumer price micro-data (price observation) and organisation of the data in a way that allows the

sales price charged from the consumer to be monitored, and broken down by goods in the basket and points of sale.

In addition, information is required on cases where the product price has changed due to product parameters, etc.

(e.g. if the product in the basket is replaced by another product or if the quantity in the packaging has changed).

Studying inflation on the basis of consumer price micro-data (price observation) allows for gaining additional insight

that is unavailable through the use of aggregate inflation data. Many EU central banks have studied inflation on the

basis of consumer price micro-data. For example, identification of the frequency and scope of changes in the price of

goods helps to understand corporate price formation habits and behavioural patterns. A better grasp of price rigidity

allows the process of economic adjustment to be comprehended and deciphered. Micro-data also allow the transfer
