1 Calculating FISIM in Luxembourg 1.1 Introductory remarks FISIM are calculated in accordance with: Council Regulation (EC) No 448/98 of 16 February 1998 completing and amending Regulation (EC) No 2223/96 with respect to the allocation of financial intermediation services indirectly measured (FISIM) within the European system of national and regional accounts (ESA) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1889/2002 of 23 October 2002 on the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 448/98 completing and amending Regulation (EC) No 2223/96 with respect to the allocation of financial intermediation services indirectly measured (FISIM) within the European system of national and regional Accounts (ESA) 1.2 Statistical sources quarterly report of Luxembourg credit institutions' interest rates, supplied by the BCL International Financial Statistics quarterly tables on international currency interest rates by IMF quarterly statistical analysis broken down by country, currency and economic sector for financial intermediaries, other than Caisses rurales Raiffeisen, supplied by the BCL and the Caisses rurales Raiffeisen annual balance sheet profit-and-loss accounts of financial intermediaries other than the Caisses rurales Raiffeisen supplied by the BCL, and the Caisses rurales Raiffeisen annual profit-and-loss accounts the mutual funds' balance sheets and profit-and-loss accounts supplied by the CSSF BIS data concerning residents' bank assets and liabilities vis-à-vis foreign financial intermediaries, as notified by the BCL balance-of-payments data concerning flows of interest on bank assets and liabilities between resident sectors and foreign financial intermediaries, as notified by the BCL 1.3 Calculation of FISIM FISIM are calculated in several stages: Stage 1: Calculation of theoretical interest flows for each financial corporation through application of the representative interest rates to outstanding loans and deposits (average of four quarterly averages) broken down by sector, subsector and the rest of the world, and by currency (main currencies). Alignment of theoretical credit and debit interest (broken down by sector, subsector and the rest of the world) with the actual interest on each credit institution's profit-and-loss account. It should be noted that the financial sector's accounting plan generally provides for the recording of accrued interest and not interest due or paid. IV.1.Currencies.

2 Stage 2: Incorporation of the interests and the average outstanding loans and deposits at the Caisses rurales Raiffeisen and other financial intermediaries, excluding mutual funds and financial-holding corporations (S.1231). Adjustment of credit and debit interest flows within the resident monetary and non-monetary financial institute sector (S.122+S123part). In order to balance resident interbank flows, the amounts calculated are replaced by the average value of credit and debit interest. The difference between that value and the initial figures is allocated to non-resident financial institutions, so that the total interest flows between financial institutions (both resident and non-resident) as shown in the profit-and-loss account remain unchanged. The loan and deposit data and their respective interest flows are brought into line with the financial data of the insurance sector and general government sector. The result is a table showing loans, deposits and related interest by economic sector: Table 1 Outstanding credits and deposits and interest flows in 2002 (EURO ' s) account Sector Sector Average stock interest credit AF2 & AF4 S11 non-financial corporations other monetary financial institutions and non-bank financial S122 + S1231 establishments S123reste mutual funds, financial holdings and other financial-holding (S S1233) corporations S124 financial auxiliaries S125 insurance corporations and pension funds S1251 life assurance S1252 non-life insurance S1253 reinsurance S13 general government S1311 central government S1313 local government S1314 social-security funds S14 households sole proprietorships as consumers as owners of dwellings S15 Npish S200 non-bank rest of the world S201 rest of the world monetary financial institutions Total loans debit AF2 S11 non-financial corporations other monetary financial institutions and non-bank financial S122 + S1231 establishments S123part mutual funds, financial holdings and other financial-holding (S S1233) corporations S124 financial auxiliaries S125 insurance corporations and pension funds S1251 life assurance S1252 non-life insurance S1253 reinsurance S13 general government S1311 central government S1313 local government S1314 social security funds

But since interbank loans and deposits are largely issued in currencies other than the euro (in particular the US dollar 26% in 2002), this original reference rate can be applied only with difficulty to the calculation of FISIM in the case of non-financial corporations (S.11), general government (S.13), households (S.14) and non-profit institutions serving households (S.15), sectors which have loans and deposits issued almost exclusively in euro (EUR). For this reason a euro reference rate is calculated for the above sectors on the basis of the euro and US dollar money-market rates. Those money-market rates are multiplied by the euro's and other currencies' relative share, and by the US dollar's relative share, of total interbank loans and deposits. The mixed internal reference rate thus obtained does not correspond exactly to the implicit internal reference rate, hence it must be adjusted by means of a correction factor. The correction factor is applied to the euro money-market rate for the purpose of calculating the euro internal reference rate applicable to the calculation of FISIM in sectors S.11, S.13, S.14 and S.15. For mutual funds and financial holdings (S.123part), financial auxiliaries (S.124) and insurance corporations and pension funds (S.125), use is made of the implicit reference rate which is a mixed reference rate, since bank loans and deposits in the above sectors are to a large extent issued in US dollars, similar to interbank loans and deposits. The external reference rate is calculated by dividing the average value of interest received and interest paid by the average of outstanding loans and deposits between, on the one hand, resident sectors S.122 and S.1231 and, on the other, non-resident financial intermediaries.

Export of FISIM between the resident and non-resident financial sectors may have a positive or a negative sign. In the event of negative results, such exports are interpreted as imports of FISIM by the resident financial sector. In Luxembourg, this is the case for all the years for which FISIM have been calculated (since 1995). Table 4.

6 TOTAL FISIM EXPORT FISIM IMPORT Total FISIM output is equal to the sum of FISIM on deposits and loans and export of FISIM. Table 5.
