1 GLOBAL FINANCIAL STABILITY REPORT STATISTICAL APPENDIX, OCTOBER 213 This presentation complements the main text of the Global Financial Stability Report (GFSR) with data on financial developments in regions and countries as well as in selected sectors. Unless otherwise noted, the data reflect information available up to July 31, 213. The data come for the most part from sources outside the IMF. Although the IMF endeavors to use the highest quality data available, it cannot be responsible for the accuracy of information obtained from independent sources. Please note that effective with the April 211 issue, the IMF s Statistics Department assumed responsibility for compiling the Financial Soundness Indicators tables, and they are no longer part of this appendix. However, these tables will continue to be linked to the GFSR Statistical Appendix on the IMF s public website. Effective with the April 213 issue, the database and filtering criteria for the external private financing Tables 4, 5, 6, and 7 were changed. Consequently, there was a significant break in the data reported in previous issues. The following symbols and conventions have been used in this appendix:... to indicate that data are not available; to indicate that the figure is zero, or less than half the final digit shown, or the item does not exist; between years and months (for example, 28 9 or January June) to indicate the years or months covered, including the beginning and ending years or months; / between years (for example, 28/9) to indicate a fiscal or financial year. Billion means a thousand million; trillion means a thousand billion. Basis points refers to hundredths of 1 percentage point (for example, 25 basis points is equivalent to ¼ of 1 percentage point). n.a. means not applicable. Minor discrepancies between constituent figures and totals are due to rounding. As used in this volume, the term country does not in all cases refer to a territorial entity that is a state as understood by international law and practice. As used here, the term also covers some territorial entities that are not states but for which statistical data are maintained on a separate and independent basis.
