Issue detail | Issue | 43.c. Interest at concessional rates |
|
| Issue description and recommendation | Loans with concessional interest rates could be seen as providing a transfer from lender to borrower. Should such transfers be recognized in the SNA? Although there is no clear definition of what is a concessional loan, the guidance in the External Debt Guide suggests features such as an intention to convey a benefit and occurrence in a noncommercial setting (usually government-to-government). If concessional loans are not recognized in the core accounts, should the concessional amounts be considered as supplementary information where they are significant? | | Click icon to see the provisional recommendation for this issue | | Click icon to see background information for this issue (AEG papers, meetings, comments, etc.) | (For the links above use your browser's back button to return to this page) |
