Background to FISIM Issue
Calculation of FISIM• Refined with every SNA revision
• Financial services are defined in paragraph 4.98 of the 2008 SNA:
• The production of financial services is the result of financial intermediation, financial risk management, liquidity transformation or auxiliary financial activities

Terms of Reference of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM
Risk management (How to characterise and reflectrisk management/mitigation activities, includingexchange rate risk, in FISIM?) – 2 views∙ 1st view – Include risk premium in FISIM
∙ Covers risk mitigation activity∙ Do not match reference rate to risk profiles of
loans/deposits∙ 2nd view – Exclude risk premium from FISIM
∙ Represents distributional flows, not payment for services
∙ Use risk-matched reference rates
![Page 8: 1 Update on Work of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM Herman Smith UNSD/DESA Workshop on the Implementation of the 2008 SNA, Kiev, 29 November – 2 December 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f0d5503460f94c210bb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Terms of Reference of ISWGNA ask Force on FISIM
Liquidity transformation (How to reflect
transformation of short-term deposits into long-term
loans in FISIM?) – 2 views∙ 1st view – Include this element in FISIM
∙ Use reference rate not matched to specific maturities of loans/deposits
∙ 2nd view – Exclude this element from FISIM∙ Use maturity-matched reference rates
∙ Question of whether FISIM should cover cost of hedging term risk arising from deposit-taking corporations lending long-term and borrowing short-term

Terms of Reference of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM
Consistency of FISIM in international trade∙ How is equality of exports and imports of FISIM
between economic territories affected by∙ Conversion between domestic and foreign
currencies?∙ Choice of reference rate?
∙ Link to idea of using different reference rates for different currencies
∙ Need for national accounts compilers to provide exports and imports of FISIM by institutional sector (including the rest of the world) to improve coherence between national accounts and balance of payments statistics

Terms of Reference of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM
Implications for price and volume measures∙ How will the clarification of above issues, including the
choice of reference rate, affect price and volume measures of FISIM?

Update on work of ISWGNA Task Force
• Two meetings held• March 2011• July 2011
• Attended by wide range of experts from various countries and international organisations
• Intense and extensive discussions on the four clarification questions
![Page 12: 1 Update on Work of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM Herman Smith UNSD/DESA Workshop on the Implementation of the 2008 SNA, Kiev, 29 November – 2 December 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f0d5503460f94c210bb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Conclusions
Risk Management• General agreement that credit default risk
should excluded from FISIM• However, by convention, it may not be
excluded due to lack of information
![Page 13: 1 Update on Work of ISWGNA Task Force on FISIM Herman Smith UNSD/DESA Workshop on the Implementation of the 2008 SNA, Kiev, 29 November – 2 December 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f0d5503460f94c210bb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Conclusions
Liquidity transformation• Term premium should be included in FISIM, but a
single reference rate should be used• Tests will be conducted on the following various
methods to calculate reference rate• Single reference rate using inter-bank lending
rates• Matching reference rate using different rates for
short-term and long-term deposits and loans

14
Conclusions
Liquidity transformation• Reference rate calculated using the midpoint of
interest rates on deposits and interest rates on loans
• Average reference rate (weighted by the stocks of short-term and long-term loans and deposits) calculated using different rates for the short-term and long-term reference rates

15
Conclusions
Consistency of FISIM in international trade• Single reference rate should be used to calculate
domestic FISIM• Appropriate reference rates for should be used to
calculate FISIM for each underlying currency • When stocks of deposits and loans are not available
to allocate FISIM to industries, shares of value added could be used
• International cooperation is needed to obtain information on FISIM imports using mirror statistics on the exports of FISIM

Conclusions
Price and volume measures• In principle, output indicators could be used to
calculate volume measures of FISIM• However, method is data intensive • Also, difficult to determine weights for the output
indicators• Deflated stocks approach preferred• To use general price indices (excluding FISIM) as
deflators

Way forward
• Draft preliminary report• Detailed guidance, including formulae, on tests• Decision on need for additional meeting• Final report to include results of tests• Timeline for completion of reports to be determined
after evaluation of time needed for tests
