INTRODUCTION
This note documents the concepts, data sources and methods employed in compiling statistics for listed equity in the Australian National Accounts: Financial Accounts (ABS Cat. No. 5232.0), referred to subsequently in this note as the financial accounts. Where relevant, listed equity is a financial asset and liability item in the sectoral financial stocks tables (tables 1 to 16) and sectoral financial transactions tables (tables 17 to 33) in the financial accounts. Additionally, the data for listed equity stocks is summarised in table 40, and listed equity transactions summarised in unpublished table 48.
