INSTITUTIONAL SECTORS AND SUBSECTORS

1 The sectors used in publication tables 8-12 reference the Standard Economic Sector Classifications of Australia 2008 (SESCA) (cat. no. 1218.0). Classification of individual enterprises to subsectors used four–digit classes specified in the Standard Institutional Sector Classification of Australia (SISCA), grouping units according to similar economic functions and structural characteristics.

2 The basic unit that is classified by sector is the institutional unit, which is defined as an economic entity that is capable, in its own right, of incurring liabilities and engaging in economic activities and transactions with other entities.

3 The unit for which statistics were reported in the survey was the Australian enterprise unit. This consists of all the entities within an Australian enterprise group that are in the same SESCA subsector. For this publication, the SISCA classes were classified into sectors as follows:
