Abstract

[spa] Francia, Alemania y Bélgica : unas estructuras de balance cercanas en la industria, a finales de la década de los ochenta . Es instructive» comparar en nivel y en evoluciôn las estructuras de balance de las empresas industriales francesas, alemanas y belgas. Esta delicada comparaciôn se realiza tratando y valorizando nuevamente los datos sacados del Banco europeo de . datos contables (BACH), para acercarse a la lôgica econômica vigente en contabilidad nacional. A finales de los ochenta, las estructuras de financiacion de las empresas alemanas y parecen cercanas. En especial la portion de los fondos propios en el total del balance de las empresas no es mucho mes elevada en Alemania que en Francia o . Bélgica, si se asimilan las provisiones de pension con los fondos propios. En cambio, las empresas alemanas presentan una ventaja relativa en cuanto a financiacion . interna de los activos inmovilizados. [fre] France, Allemagne et Belgique : des structures de bilan dans l'industrie proches à la fin de la décennie quatre-vingt . II est très instructif de comparer, en niveau et en évolution, les structures de bilan des entreprises industrielles françaises, allemandes et belges. Cette comparaison délicate est menée en retraitant et revalorisant les données issues de la Banque européenne de données comptables (BACH), afin de se rapprocher de la logique économique prévalant en comptabilité nationale. À la fin des années quatre-vingt, les structures de financement des ses industrielles françaises, allemandes et belges paraissent proches. En particulier, la part des fonds propres dans le total du bilan des entreprises n'est pas sensiblement plus élevée en Allemagne qu'en France ou en Belgique lorsqu'on assimile les provisions de pension à des fonds propres. En revanche, les entreprises allemandes ont un avantage relatif en matière de financement interne des actifs immobilisés. [ger] Frankreich, Deutschland und Belgien: . Konvergenz der Bilanzstrukturen in der Industrie Ende der achtziger Jahre . Es ist ûberaus aufschluBreich, die Bilanzstrukturen von franzosischen, deutschen und belgischen Industrie- unternehmen hinsichtlich ihrer Zusammensetzung und ihrer Entwicklung miteinander zu vergleichen. Dieser schwierige Vergleich wird anhand von Daten aus der Europâischen Buchhaltungstechnischen Datenbank (BACH) vorgenommen, die hierzu neu bearbeitet und neu bewertet worden sind, um eine Gegenûberstellung in Anlehnung an die wirtschaftliche Logik zu ermôglichen, die der volkswirtschaftlichen Gesamtrechnung zugrunde liegt. . Ende der achtziger Jahre sind sich die Finanzie- rungsstrukturen der franzosischen, deutschen und belgischen Industrieunternehmen recht âhnlich. Ins- besondere ist der Anteil des Eigenkapitals am Bilanz- gesamtwert der Unternehmen in Deutschland nicht viel hôher als in Frankreich oder in Belgien, wenn man die Pensionsrûckstellungen dem Eigenkapital gleichstellt. Dagegen verfùgen die deutschen Unternehmen ùber einen relativen Vorteil bei der Innenfinanzierung des Anlagevermôgens. [eng] France, Germany and Belgium: Balance-Sheet Structures Close in Industry Towards the End of the 1980s . A great deal can be learnt from a comparison of the level and development of balance-sheet structures in French, German and Belgian industrial companies. This tricky comparison is made by reprocessing and re-evaluating data from BACH (Bank for the Accounts of Companies Harmonized) in order to move closer to the prevailing economic logic in the system of national accounts. . In the late 1980s, the financing structures of French, German and Belgian industrial companies appeared to be similar. In particular, when pension reserves are classed as equity capital, equity capital as a proportion of the total balance sheet of companies was not noticeably higher in Germany than in France or Belgium. On the other hand, the German companies had a relative advantage as regards the internal financing of fixed assets.
