Economic Statistics Transformation Programme: enhanced financial accounts (UK flow of funds) – 2018 matrix update

This article summarises the latest flow of funds matrices, which show the financial relationships between the various sectors of the UK economy.

Included in this article is a presentation of the latest experimental “from-whom-to-whom” statistics, with estimates for the majority of financial instruments from 1997 to 2017. These data are consistent with the data published in the Office for National Statistics publications UK Economic Accounts (UKEA) Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2018 and the UK National Accounts, The Blue Book 2018.

This article also includes visualisations for these statistics as well as an updated Sankey diagram (initial Sankey diagram was published in March 2016). These visualisations are a result of ongoing development work aimed at making our data more accessible and informative for our users. We welcome further feedback on the way we present this data. We have also produced a refreshed suite of explanatory notes, which are linked into Section 9 of this article.
