NOTES


ABOUT THE PUBLICATION

International Investment Position, Australia: Supplementary Statistics (cat. no. 5352.0) presents statistics on Australia’s international investment position by countries, which supplements the quarterly publication, Balance of Payments and International Investment Position, Australia (cat. no. 5302.0). For foreign investment in Australia (liabilities), it includes details of country of investor, investment stocks (level of investment), flows (transactions) and associated income. For Australian investment abroad (assets), similar detail is provided in respect of country of investment. The non-transaction changes which occur due to exchange rate effects, other price effects and other changes in the levels of these assets and liabilities that are not due to transactions are not shown in this publication but do contribute to the level of investment.

The statistics are presented as time series for the calendar years 2001 to 2008 inclusive and are consistent with those to be published in the March quarter 2009 issue of Balance of Payments and International Investment Position, Australia (cat. no. 5302.0).


REVISIONS

Incorporation of the latest survey and administrative data has resulted in revisions to International Investment data back to calendar year 2005.


ROUNDING

Discrepancies may occur between totals in this publication and the same aggregates from other sources, and between sums of component items and totals due to rounding.
