Abstract

The latest statistical and methodological structure for Uruguay's National Accounts is defined with 2012 as the reference year. This important change allowed to update the Quarterly National Accounts (QNA) series for the period 2016-2020, taking 2016 as the base year. These changes entail a loss of consistency between the new National Accounts series (Basis 2016) and the old series (Basis 2005). This paper presents the backcasting for the Uruguayan GDP with annual and quarterly frequency from 2012 to 2015, which is consistent with the QAN series Basis 2016. Methodological improvements and broaden statistical coverage are incorporated, together with Supply and Use Tables (COU, in Spanish) for the years 2012 and 2016. Unlike the new series that cover from 2016 onwards, the backcasted time series for the period 2012-2015 cannot be considered a compilation of National Accounts because of its heavy reliance on statistical techniques.
