The statistics create a basis for a number of analyses on demography and society and are used as a basis for planning tasks on a national, regional and municipal level. In their basic form, the statistics have been compiled since 1769 but have undergone a series of changes as society developed and legislation followed. Most of the present table series in Statbank Denmark comprise data from 2007 and forward, while a few of these go back further., Statistical presentation, The population statistics are usually a quarterly aggregation of the population living in Denmark broken down by e.g. sex, age, ancestry, marital status and municipality of residence. In connection with COVID-19, however, the number of deceased persons was aggregated on a weekly basis broken down by date of death, age bracket and province. The population statistics show the population in figures at the reference date in terms of persons, households and families. The statistics also show changes in the population, such as births, deaths and migrations etc., in the period between the two reference dates. Similarly, the statistics contain information about fertility, life expectancy and divorce rate. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data for the statistics is collected on a daily basis from the Civil Registration System (CPR) by means of a system-to-system solution. The civil registration number and the updating of residence information and marital status information etc. is required for a vast number of public services, which serves as continuous validation of the content of the register. The number of immigrants, descendants, households, families, marriages and divorces is assessed on the basis of data from the Civil Registration System. It is also used to calculate e.g. fertility rates, life expectancy and divorce rates. In addition, data is applied from the Birth Register and the Cause of Death Register from the Danish Health Data Authority from which data is collected annually., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, These statistics are relevant for municipalities, regions, ministries, other government organisations and private companies in analyses of a number of conditions of society and as a basis for planning of e.g. schools, roads, facilities and services for the elderly etc. Statistics Denmark also uses the basic data and results of the statistics for a vast number of other assessments., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics are based on the population registered in the Civil Registration System (CPR). Since correct registration in CPR is a condition for being able to lead a normal life in Denmark, the general quality and reliability of the register is regarded as very high. Failure to report immigrations and emigrations means that the published population is considered to be overestimated by 10,000 people or 0.14 per cent., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are usually published one and a half months after the end of the reference period. The statistics are released without delay according to the scheduled dates of publication. The weekly publication of the number of deaths is released five days after the reference week. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Denmark bases its population statistics on an administrative register, which also applies for a few other countries, whereas many countries take censuses every five or ten years. The population figure for the period 1971 and onwards is based on the same source, i.e. the Civil Registration System (CPR). The population figure from before this period is based on censuses., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in “Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik” (in Danish). Figures for the population and its movements are published in Statbank Denmark. In addition, the figures are included in the publications , Befolkningens udvikling, and , Indvandrere i Danmark, (both in Danish with summaries in English).

Documentation of statistics: National Accounts: Input-Output and Supply-Use

Contact info, National Accounts, Climate and Environment, Economic Statistics , Peter Rørmose Jensen , +45 40 13 51 26 , PRJ@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, National Accounts Input-Output and Supply-Use 2022 , Previous versions, Input-Output Tables 2020, Input-Output Tables 2019, Input-Output Tables 2018, Input-Output Tables 2017, Input-Output Tables 2016, Input-Output Tables 2015, Input-Output Tables 2011, The purpose of the input-output table is by means of an organized tabulation of detailed economical-statistics to inform about the interactions between production, imports and uses in the economy for a given period. An input The table facilitates a compilation of an input-output model showing direct and indirect interactions in the economy., Statistical presentation, On the basis of National Accounts product balances tables are compiled which in monetary terms describes how goods and services have been flowing in the economy between suppliers and users. The table contains detailed data for economic structures which enables the compilation of an input-output model that can be used to calculate direct as well as indirect consequences of changes in the level of final demand., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The national accounts as well as the input-output tables are compiled according to the definitions in EU's "European System of National and Regional Accounts - ESA2010", which is a European version of the UN's "A System of National Accounts 2008". In terms of data the input-output tables is almost entirely based on supply and use tables., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Input-output tables are used by e.g. Central Government Administration, trade associations, consultancy companies and others as an important part of large macroeconomic and general equilibrium models and also as an independent tool for assessment of the consequences for e.g. employment and CO2-emissions of various changes in final demand., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The inaccuracy of the national accounts figures relates to the inaccuracy of the various sources, which are used. However, the conceptual consistency and, the uniform adaptation of the sources over time contribute to reducing the inaccuracy of the national accounts figures. In particular, the combination of the primary sources into a coherent system in many cases gives rise to the detection of errors, which therefore are not reflected in the final national accounts or in the input-output tables., The uncertainty in the two most recent years (2023-2024) in the series of input-output tables with 69 industries is greater than in tables at the full 117 industry level. This is primarily due to the fact that the data base in the preliminary years is not as complete and comprehensive as in the final years. The two preliminary tables are compiled using a mathematical updating procedure on the latest final version together with new up-to-date information about the row and column totals. , Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The input-output tables are released once every year at the same time as the final national accounts. The time of release is approximately (almost) 3 years after the end of the reference year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, With a few exceptions the input-output tables can be aggregated into the Danish Industry Classification (DB07) and, thus, input-output tables can therefore easily be combined with other statistics applying the DB07 classification. There is a high degree of international comparability of input-output tables. A lot of effort has been put into keeping the entire time series of input-output tables intact from 1966 through 2011 with no breaks., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, Input-output data is disseminated mostly on the internet through the http://www.Statbank.dk and the input-output subject page https://www.dst.dk/inputoutput in various file formats. The latter is easier to use because extraction of input-output data from the statbank requires some knowledge of what you are looking for., The strongly aggregated input-output tables published in Statistical Yearbook and Statistical 10-year review are great for a quick overview of the material., Read more about accessibility and clarity

Documentation of statistics: Regional Accounts

Contact info, Government Finances, Economic Statistics , Ulla Ryder Jørgensen , +45 51 49 92 62 , URJ@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Regional Accounts 2024 , Previous versions, Regional Accounts 2023, Regional Accounts 2022, Regional Accounts 2021, Regional Accounts 2020, Regional Accounts 2019, Regional Accounts 2018, Regional Accounts 2017, Regional Accounts 2016, Regional Accounts 2015, Regional Accounts 2014, Regional Accounts 2013, Regional Accounts 2012, The purpose of regional accounts is to describe the economic activity in the regions and provinces within the framework of national accounts definitions and classifications. The accounts are compiled in accordance with the guidelines set out in ESA2010 and are comparable with regional accounts for other European countries. Regional accounts are published at the NUTS II level (regions) and NUTS III level (provinces). Regional accounts have been compiled since 1999., Statistical presentation, Regional accounts describe the geographical dimension of production and income conditions as these are compiled in the national accounts using the production approach. The regional allocation aims at adding production etc. to the region where production takes place. , Regional accounts contain information on GDP, gross value added, gross fixed capital formation, compensation of employees and employment. Moreover the household sector's incomes are compiled. The regional allocation of the household income is based on the residence of the households and not where the incomes are earned., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The statistics are based on regional versions of the national accounts' sources, where this is possible. The main sources are Accounting Statistics for Non-agricultural Private Sector and General Government Finances Statistics. The sources are used either directly or as a distribution key. The regional accounts are revised in line with the publication rhythm of the national accounts. The final figures for the regional accounts are therefore not available until three years after the end of the reference period., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, National and regional accounts are relevant for all, who deal with economic and regional matters., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, Regional accounts are subject to the same margins of uncertainty as the annual national accounts and the inaccuracy here relates to the inaccuracy of the various sources used. However, the conceptual consistency and over time uniform adaptation of the sources contribute to reduce the inaccuracy of the national accounts figures. In particular, the combination of the primary sources into a coherent system in many cases reveals errors, which are therefore not reflected in the final national accounts. With regard to the regional dimension the following factors can be mentioned:, Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, First version of regional accounts is published 12 month after the reference year. Final regional accounts are published 3 years after the reference year. Regional accounts have a high degree of punctuality, Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Regional accounts are consistent with the national accounts, as the sum of the figures for each region with respect to each individual variable is equal to the national accounts value for the same variables. Consequently, each variable can be interpreted in the same manner as the national accounts variables. Regional accounts are based on guidelines set out in ESA2010 and are thereby directly comparable with other regional accounts from the EU Member States. Consistent time series are available for 1993 onwards., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published in a Danish press release. In the StatBank, these statistics can be found under , National accounts by region, . For further information, go to the , subject page, ., Regional accounts by 38 industries and 11 provinces/5 regions are available (at a charge). Furthermore regional data can be provided (at a charge) for groups of municipalities with a joint population of at least 100.000 inhabitants. In addition GDP and other non-industry data is available for municipalities with a population of at least 10.000 inhabitants., Read more about accessibility and clarity

Do we, as a society, benefit enough from our data?

For 40 years, Statistics Denmark has made data available to society in a secure way. The return is high and diverse when data is used for research, analysis and as the backdrop to important decisions in society. But should we – as a society – be satisfied with the present opportunities when the benefits could be even greater?, 9 June 2023 8:00 ,  , Today, it is registered when you see a doctor and buy medicine at the pharmacy. It is reported when you get paid, who pays it and which car you drive. You are part of the statistics when you go to the cinema and when you play badminton in your spare time. Data is also collected when you rent a holiday home, when you shop online, and when you use electricity, water and heating., Data is playing an ever greater role in all respects, and data is generated and collected in constantly new fields. The digitisation from end to end of all sorts of things generate data about all Danes every day – as citizens, as users (of public service), as businesses and as customers., The chief question in a data-driven world is then what is going to happen with all the data that is generated?  Who should be able to access it, for what, and how should the access to data be granted now and in the future?, A key element of democracy, Perhaps you worry what the vast amount of data can be used for.  That’s understandable. Therefore, it is important that your data and society’s data is treated with the necessary confidentiality in a secure environment that does not allow the individual citizen or business to be identified. Safeguarding this is one of our core competences., Statistics Denmark is a child of democracy and was established as an independent statistical agency in 1850 – the year after Denmark’s democratic constitution was passed. Then as now, reliable official statistics are a key element of a democratic Denmark. Statistics Denmark complies with the common European rules on, e.g., professional independence, impartiality, confidentiality, reliability and accessibility. As a citizen, you can rest assured that data about you will not fall into the wrong hands, once it is behind our safety barriers., Over the past 40 years, we have made public data available to Danish society – especially for research and analysis, so that the immense knowledge that lies in data can benefit society. We have access to all public registers thus ensuring that there is public and democratic access through us to the information that public authorities collect as part of our welfare society., Denmark’s Data Portal, Statistics Denmark has a dual responsibility, which we take very seriously. On the one hand, we are obliged to take good care of data – on the other hand, we have a duty to share it, so that it may create value. We have come up with good solutions to this dilemma., In 2022, we took the first step towards what we call Denmark’s Data Portal. The portal will make it even easier for researchers and analysts to use our data, and in the future, it will be possible to provide access to more data than that which is part of our current statistical production. Obviously, in a way that maintains data confidentiality., The benefit to society is manifold: Stronger research, better policy development, evidence-based practices, greater knowledge and better decision-making at all levels of society. The more data we include, the greater the potential benefit to society., More data on society should benefit the community, There is also an increasing amount of privately held data. Data created by private businesses as part of their efforts to service and understand their users and customers even better. The businesses register when products are scanned at the supermarket, and the banks know where and when we use our credit cards. It is also registered when we use our travel cards or drive through the tollbooth at the Great Belt Bridge or the Oresund Bridge. And much, much more. All of it data that can also be used – if handled securely – for statistics and analysis to the benefit of all of us, and not just to the advantage of the businesses and organisations collecting it., Shortly before the pandemic, Statistics Denmark was granted access to electricity meter data from Energinet, which is an independent public company running Denmark’s energy infrastructure. Access to this data enabled us to conclude, for instance, that there were no signs of any significant decline in the level of activity in Danish industry in spite of the pandemic. An important and reassuring piece of information that we would not have been able to provide that quickly without the electricity meter data. And a very good example of how Statistics Denmark’s access to data from private suppliers benefits society and our common knowledge., We believe that all kinds of data created in Danish society about Danish society and citizens of Danish society should benefit society – and we are happy to be of service in that context., Common access, In international statistical circles, there is currently talk of the need to establish national data stewards. It is necessary to ensure common access to using society’s data – both public and private – for the common good. This is a role that Statistics Denmark has held and developed over many years when it comes to data from the public sector. At the moment, we are developing this role further with Denmark’s Data Portal., However, there is huge potential for creating further value for society, a value that will grow as the Data Portal gradually includes more data. Not just data from the public sector, but also data created in the private sector that can safely be made available to society based on the virtues and obligations that rest with us as the official national statistical authority., Our imagination is the only limit to the potential gain to society.
