Apply NowThis course explores both the conceptual and practical aspects of compiling monetary statistics focusing on other financial corporations (OFCs) as set out in the 2016 Monetary and Financial Statistics Manual and Compilation Guide (MFSMCG). The primary objective of this course is to foster a deeper understanding of the OFCs (insurance corporations, pension funds, non-MMF investment funds, etc.), their pivotal role in financial systems, and their typical balance sheet structures. The course discusses how OFCs' data can be harnessed to compile the most comprehensive set of monetary statistics to understand liquidity and financing extended to the nonfinancial sectors and nonresidents by the financial corporations sector. Additionally, the course delves into various aspects of financial statistics, including the application of MFS in constructing the balance sheet approach (BSA) matrix and in the IMF's financial programming framework. The course integrates discussions on cutting-edge issues related to MFS, including Fintech, digital money and climate finance. Through a combination of lectures and case studies, the course equips participants with practical skills for compiling monetary statistics for the OFCs subsector using standardized report forms (SRFs) and deriving analytical surveys from SRFs, including the OFCs Survey (OFCS) and the financial corporations survey (FCS). A strong emphasis is also placed on peer learning through the exchange of country experiences among participants.
