Abstract:
This paper reviews the development over time of the
financial surpluses/deficits of the different broad economic
sectors, i.e., the personal sector, companies, government
and the external sector. The form in which different
sectors' financial surpluses/deficits are held is then
reviewed, and this affords an opportunity to consider the
evolution of various types of financial assets and
liabilities since 1960. Data are obtained from both
published and unpublished sources. A degree of estimation
is required on occasion, and a number of somewhat arbitrary
assumptions are necessary. For this reason, certain data
are more "ball-park" than precise estimates. However, it is
believed that the broad picture sketched is a reasonably
reliable one.
