The Samoan authorities have expressed strong interest in the Supply and Use Tables (SUT) to improve macroeconomic projections for policy purposes. The mission worked with Samoa Bureau of Statistics (SBS) staff to assess and adjust the Household Income and Expenditure Survey data; compile Household Final Consumption Expenditure estimates for 2023; and map the estimates to the SUT. In addition, Government Final Consumption Expenditure, and output and intermediate consumption estimates by industry have been compiled and incorporated in the SUT. Exports and imports data were assessed, aggregated, and mapped to the SUT as well.
