Abstract
This article goes beyond the traditional methodology of Social Accounting Matrix
(SAM) at building a Financial Social Accounting Matrix for Spain (FSAM). It has had
to overcome the difficulties that arise at consolidating the data from the National
Statistics Institute (INE) and the Bank of Spain (BE). A RAS methodology is proposed
to estimate the property income distribution when no official data are available. This is
the first FSAM for the Spanish economy which could provides new tools to deepen the
analysis of the financial sector and the determinants of financial stability associated with
the interaction with other sectors of the economy.
Keywords: Financial Social Accounting Matrix, Spain; RAS.

1. Introduction.
In every economy there are five fully identified agents that are known as institutional
sectors: non-financial corporations, financial institutions, government, households and
non-profit institutions serving households (NPISHs). A sixth agent could be considered
the rest of the world (RW), which is also composed of the same five institutional sectors
as above. The reason for this grouping is related with the functions and activities
undertaken in a society by these five institutional sectors. Production and transactions of
these sectors are collected in the System of National Accounts (SNA).
The main activity of non-financial corporations, represented by companies, is the
production of different goods and services required by an economy. This sector
accounts for the productive economy and generates the main contribution to the Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) which in turn gives rise to the circular flow of income. This
sector is usually the largest in terms of number of players involved and it concentrates
the largest number of surplus and deficit agents of an economy.
The government sector includes central, regional and local governments, as well as,
any government agency that serves society. The services provided by the government
are carried out, in principle, without generating economic benefit for this sector.
The household sector consists mainly of individuals who have very special
characteristics. On the one hand, it provides labor to the rest of institutional sectors for
the development of their activities. On the other hand, it is the final goal of the
generation of goods and services provided by the other sectors. In addition, this sector
can also participate in the production of goods and services not necessarily established
as a legal entity.
The main role of the NPISHs sector is to provide services to the household sector, in
similar terms to those of the government, but from the private sector.

The financial sector serves as a link to interconnect all other sectors. It identifies
surplus and deficit agents and its main function is to be a channel for the transfer of
funds from the former to the latter. Therefore, achieving an adequate financial support
to deficit sectors becomes a paramount task for the financial sector.
The results of the decisions of institutional sectors are shown in the SNA, which
provides a complete system of integrated accounts for all economic activities. However,
this system is not enough to understand the complex interconnections between sectors.
The first attempt to deepen the analysis of these interconnections was through the input-
output model of Leontief (1936) which aimed at collecting the intra-industrial links to
show that the final product of a sector can be used as an intermediate good for other
sector. However, this approach is limited to the production and demand of goods and
services. Stone (1962) proposed a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) to overcome the
limitations of both the SNA and the input-output model at considering all economic
transactions taking place within an economy and adding information about the
institutional sectors and income distribution. The SAM is basically a matrix
representation of the SNA with some extensions. The adoption of this framework by the
World Bank and the publication of the articles by Pyatt and Round (1977, 1979) made
the SAM a popular and powerful tool for national and international institutions to assess
the impact of economic programs and exogenous shocks on the economy.
The short-term perspective of the SAM allows reliable estimate of the effects of
economic policy proposals and reforms in the economy. Thereby, it is not surprising
that many countries have developed this tool in order to evaluate political economy
decisions. In the specific case of Spain, the first SAM was developed by Kehoe et al.
(1988) for the year 1980. After that, several authors have updated, expanded and
improved the precedent ones like Alvarez-Martinez and Polo (2014), who developed a
4
SAM for 2000 and collect the main references. To the best of our knowledge, the more
recent SAM for the Spanish economy is by Cansino et al. (2013) for 2007.
It should be stressed that most of the SAMs have been built to answer particular
questions of computable general equilibrium models with limited scopes for more
general applications.
The success of SAM has expanded to a regional perspective. The initial national
dimension of the SAM has led some countries to boost interest in building this tool at
the regional level. Among them, Spain has been very active in developing regional
SAMs as can be seen in Camara-Sanchez et al (2014).
Although the SAM is very useful for economic analysis and evaluation, it is an
incomplete tool because it is limited to the real economy at not including financial ties
across the sectors, that is, details on the financial institutions and transactions of the
agents through its financial assets and liabilities..
The recent financial crisis has reminded us the important role of the financial sector
in the economy. The discussion of the effect of financial development and stability in
economic growth has emerged recently with much more strength.1 Therefore, it is
necessary and required the development of new tools and methodologies that include
the financial market and its relationship with the rest of the economic system in order to
deal with similar situations in the future. Perhaps for that reason, FSAMs are beginning
to be built. The FSAM is an extension of the traditional SAM including details of the
financial sector, financial transactions and financial instruments of all institutional units.
Considering the best of our knowledge, FSAMs have been brought out for few
countries: Cameroon (Emini and Fofack, 2004), Portugal (Santos, 2007), Turkey
(Aslan, 2007), Colombia (Hernandez, 2008), China (Li, 2008 and Liu et al., 2015 ),

Pakistan (Waheed, 2008), Luxembourg (Hubic, 2012), Philippines (Viet et al., 2013),
Germany (Helbig, 2013) and Tunisia (Ayadi and Hadj Salem, 2014).2
The importance of the financial sector lies precisely in its role of financial
intermediation at serving as a connector for the entire productive sector of the economy.
The interconnection between the financial sector and the non-financial sector is the
mechanism through which is transmitted the strengths and vulnerabilities of the
economic activity. Thus, a major role of the financial sector is the identification of
surplus sectors in order to promote adequate financial support to deficit sectors. Despite
the intricate and complex interaction between this sector and other sectors, the financial
intermediation could lead to strength other sectors of the economy through the provision
of adequate financial leverage. However, precisely through the intermediation channels,
the financial sector may be vulnerable when borrowers (companies, governments,
households) have difficulties meeting their financial obligations. Moreover, such
vulnerability could result from the misallocation of portfolios when financial
institutions allocate funds in very risky assets that could adversely affect the
profitability of investors endangering the entire financial system. That is why the
financial sector is strongly legislated and several supervision institutions have been
established or strengthened aimed at achieving a well-functioning of the financial sector
in order to provide financial stability so that market participants can develop their
activities in a sound economic framework which would contribute to the good
performance of the economy.
Although the financial sector interacts with all other sectors of the economy, its main
task should be to provide the necessary financial resources for the productive sector,
which is concentrated in the non-financial sector. The participation and efficiency of
2 FSAM could be an instrument for economic policy making in some other countries. However, confidentially policy makes this instrument unavailable.
6
these two sectors have important consequences on the aggregate performance of the
whole economy as reflected in the traditional indicators such as GDP growth.
The contribution of this article is therefore the construction of the first FSAM for the
Spanish economy. To achieve this objective we have to combine the statistics of the
National Statistics Institute of Spain (INE) and Bank of Spain (BE) which becomes a
thorough and painstaking task. The FSAM allow extending the use of the multiplier
models associated with this literature for impact analysis of public policy. Moreover, it
could improve and enrich the scope of the computable general equilibrium (CGE)
models.
The article is organized as follows. Next section presents the methodological
framework and the data sources. Section 3 shows the technical aspects of the
construction of the FSAM, while section 4 shows the FSAM for 2009. Conclusions are
drawn in section5.
2. Methodological Framework and Data Sources.
It is considered the definition of Social Accounting Matrix presented in the System
of National Accounts (SNA93) of United Nation 1993,3 which states in Chapter XX that
“A SAM is defined here as the presentation of SNA accounts in a matrix which
elaborates the linkages between a supply and use table and institutional sector
accounts”. This definition remains in the European System of Integrated Accounts 1995
(ESA95) and in the Eurostat Manual of Supply, Use and Input-Output Tables 2008. The
methodology presented here uses as input the statistics of the SNA presented by the
INE, maintaining and respecting the statistical data provided by it, while contemplating
the procedures set out in the UN Manual of SNA93 for the construction of the SAM.
3 The SNA93 devotes an entire chapter with the methodological details for constructing a SAM. This is implicitly held in the SNA2008 which hardly provides new methodological tips.
7
The developments presented here contribute to incorporating new achievements
made by Uriel (1997), Rodriguez and Llanes (2005), Cardenete and Sancho (2007) and
more recently Cansino et al. (2013), the last ones develop the SAM of Spain for 2007 at
basic prices. Our proposal extends the previous SAMs since that one of the main
contributions of this article respect to references above is that the submatrix of property
income and other current transfers’ distributions are provided and detailed by
instruments and institutional sectors.. Moreover, we go beyond at incorporating the
submatrix of the financial sector which contains the asset and liabilities flows across
institutional sector, and thus constructing an FSAM.
In doing so, the SAM framework is extended beyond the information provided by the
INE at interconnecting and incorporating the financial statistical information provided
by the released data of the BE, which also follows the concepts and methodological
procedures in the SNA manual, thus obtaining the first FSAM for the Spanish economy.
Considering that both, the SNA of the INE and the Financial statistics of the BE
shape the entire SNA Manual, the FSAM shows in a matrix representation the entire
system as defined by SNA itself.
Both INE and BE data are for the year 2009 and follows the methodological
guidelines established in ESA95. The reason of choosing that year is because we are
constrained to use the more recent input-output official data of the INE when we started
to construct the FSAM.
2.1. Macro aggregate structure of the FSAM
The FSAM is formed by the same number of rows and columns determined by the
number of accounts, products, activities, institutional sectors and financial instruments.
Table 1 shows the representation of the FSAM at the highest level of aggregation
8
(Macro FSAM). It contains a total of 11 rows and columns, the first 8 represent the
large accounts of the SNA for the domestic economy, 9 and 10 correspond to the
Balance of Payments or the rest of the world and 11 represents the FSAM Total.
The number and order of rows and columns is equal, so that the intersection of rows
and columns represent the variables of the SNA. The order of the accounts is presented
in the same order as the accounts of the SNA. First, it is represented the accounts
concerning the information of rows and columns of the national economy and at the end
the rows and columns that contain the information regarding the rest of the world. In the
specific case of Spain, the development of matrices 1 to 7 and 9 are constructed with
data of the INE, while the matrices 8 and 10 with data of the BE. That is why for the
construction of the FSAM in Spain, it is required to combine data of both institutions.
Each of these accounts can be disaggregated according to the purpose of analysis or
research that is pursued with the construction of the FSAM. The maximum possible
opening of each account is established by the levels of disaggregation of the statistics
offered by these two institutions. In this sense, the FSAM built has information for 109
products (goods and services), 74 economic activities, 5 institutional sectors and 7
financial instruments, forming a 320x320 matrix.

It can be noticed in Table 1 three main areas contained in the FSAM, the first one
refers to the information of the real sector of the economy (Area 1), that contains
elements of the supply and demand of goods and services. The second area refers to the
income distribution (Area 2), which contains the different variables of income and
expenditure that are quantified at the macroeconomic level. The last one refers to the
financial sector of the economy (Area 3), in which it is shown the value of the
transaction through the financial instruments available in the economy by the different
institutional sectors or economic agents.
As pointed out above, the intersection of rows and columns contains different
macroeconomic variables that come from the SNA with two meanings depending on the
reading by the side of the rows or by the side of the columns. The FSAM is read by the
side of the rows as inflows (credit entries, resources, or changes in liabilities or net
value) for the respective economic agents; while on the column side it is read as
outflows (debit entries, uses or changes in assets). Thus, the generic value of an
intersection of the FSAM (i, j) represents an income or entry by agent i coming from the
payment of agent j. Furthermore, as the system represents an accounting system, total
rows must be equal to the total of the columns so that the system is fully balanced,
representing all sizes within the matrix transactional flows occurring during the year
represented in the matrix.
It is interesting to identify the areas of the FSAM in the circular economy flows as
shown in Figure 1 which also gives insights to extend the use of multiplier models and
CGE models.

as indicated in Table 1. Thus, it can be noticed that the INE provides data for the
construction of the Area 1 and Area 2 and the BE for Area 3..
It is important to mention that even though the year selected for the development of
the methodology of construction of the FSAMS was 2009, the procedure proposes here
is designed to generate any other year of the series whenever the respective data are
available from the responsible institutions. Therefore, we considered as future research
the development of the fully time series of the FSAM for the years where data are
available.

The statistical information from the INE is represented in structure of data separated
by years. In the case of the databases from the BE, the same information is expressed in
quarterly time series, so that it is used the entire structure of these databases and the
sections of the periods that are required are extracted in a dynamic form. Since the data
are in quarterly series, it was required difference treatments among figures expressed in
flows from those expressed in balances, adding the first to form flows of the year and
considering the figures of the last quarter as the closing balances of the respective year.
It should be stressed the detailed work that has to be done to integrate the information of
both institutions and especially the technical difficulties in extracting the required
statistics from the database of the BE to be placed in the FSAM even though they are
public, but in many case, very disaggregated for our purpose. For that reason, the
construction of the FSAM for the Spanish economy becomes a thorough and
painstaking task. An important aspect to be taken into account is that the SNA uses
various information classifiers contained in the statistics of the INE and BE. These
information classifiers will be respected and used to build the FSAM and they are listed
below in Table 3.

3. Construction of the FSAM
As shown in Table 1, the FSAM is formed by three areas of the economy: the real
sector, the income and income distribution and the financial sector. Below is explained
how these three areas are obtained.
3.1. Construction of sub-matrices of the Real Sector (Area 1)
The first step is to get the main macroeconomic aggregates of the input-output (IO)
tables and cross them with the major macroeconomic aggregates presented in the tables
of the integrated economic accounts (IEA). It is important to point out that this data
crossing creates mismatch because the IEA are harmonized with the supply and use
tables (SUT) presented by the SNA. In the SUT the different components of supply are
estimated at basic prices as well as the components that allow calculating the supply at
purchaser prices (taxes and subsidies on products and trade and transport margins).
However, the information at basic prices of the components of demand of the economy
is not available in the SUT of the SNA.
In the case of Spain, the reason for using the input-output tables at basic prices are
due to they contain all the supply and demand variables at basic prices as well as the
breakdowns of the demand variables in national and imported origin. Thus, the IO
tables provides more useful and detail information than the SUT.
3.2. Construction of sub-matrices of income, income distribution and use of income (Area 2)
The accounts linked to the income, income distribution and use of income come from
the respective IEA. This set of accounts collects the specific variables of such accounts
as well as the aggregated variables of the system. Among the first, there are several
15
variables such as Property Income, Current Taxes on Income, Wealth, etc., Social
Contributions, Social Benefits different from Social Transfers in kind, Other Current
Transfers, Social Transfers in kind and Adjustment for the change of net participation of
households in the reserves of pension funds. While aggregated variables are represented
by the Value Added, National Income, Disposable Income, Final Consumption and
Savings among others. The variables from the rest of the world accounts in the IEA are
consistent with those from the Balance of Payments Tables of the ¿¿BE or INE ??and
are explicit in the FSAM.
Additionally, the submatrices are required to be opened by institutional sectors
indicating the received and paid for each one and for each variable. For most of the
variables the information is available in explicit form, especially in those variables that
have a single receiver or single payer. However, there are other variables in the IEA
such as Property Income and Current Transfers among others with no published data
available regarding the received and paid flows by the institutional sectors. In order to
overcome this, a methodology was developed as describe below.
3.2.1 Internal distribution of the Property Income Sub-matrix
For the construction of the sub-matrix “Property Income of the Account Allocation
of Primary Income” (rows and columns 5, Figure 1) the information published by the
INE is limited. Therefore, it is not possible to construct this sub- matrix with only the
subtotals presented in the IEA since that the income distribution received and paid by
each institutional sector required for the FSAM is not available. In order to overcome
that, we propose an estimation procedure using the RAS method and following the
recommendations of the Eurostat Manual of Supply, Use and Input-Output Tables 2008.
To estimate the sub-matrix Property income, we started by its definition provided by
the SNA2008 manual that states:
16
“7.107 Property income accrues when the owners of financial assets and natural
resources put them at the disposal of other institutional units. The income payable for
the use of financial assets is called investment income while that payable for the use of a
natural resource is called rent. Property income is the sum of investment income and
rent.”
“7.108 Investment income is the income receivable by the owner of a financial asset
in return for providing funds to another institutional unit…..”
Therefore, we can use the account balances of the financial account relating to
financial assets and liabilities across the institutional sectors as estimators of the shares
of income received and paid by each of them. Intuition suggests that the property
income received and/or paid for each institution sector should be directly proportional to
its levels of assets and/or liabilities. Therefore, satellite sub-matrices of balances of the
assets and liabilities by institutional sector are obtained from the financial account
statistics of the BE. Thus, Table 4 shows the breakdown of the total balance of assets
and liabilities for the whole economy and by institutional sectors . It is measured in
billions of Euros. Rows denote financial liabilities and columns financial assets. The
respective totals for each sector are in last row and column.

This sub-matrix provides the base for applying the RAS methodological process to
estimate the distribution of the property income, received and paid by each institutional
sector.4
The process is shown in Table 5 where the sub-matrix of balances of the total assets
and liabilities (Step 1) forms the matrix of input coefficients and provides the horizontal
structures or multipliers matrix row (Step 2) and the vertical structures or multiplier
matrix column (Step 3) to be applied in an iterative process to the total property income
received and paid of the Integrated Economic Account until having an internal
distribution of all property income sub-matrix (Step 4).

3.2.2 Internal distribution of the Sub-matrix of other Current Transfers
Regarding the sub-matrix Other Current Transfers (Row and Column 6, Table 1),
which has the same limitation of property income; we also proceeded according to the
definition of this variable in the SNA2008 Manual where it is defined as follows:
“8.19 Other current transfers consist of all current transfers between resident
institutional units, or between resident and non-resident units, other than current taxes
on income, wealth, etc., social contributions and benefits, and social benefits in kind…”.
The most important categories are: Net premiums non-life insurance, Compensation
of non-life insurance, Current transfers within general government, Current
international cooperation, Current Transfers to NPISHs, Current transfers between
households, Fines and penalties, Lotteries and gambling and Compensation payments.
In this case there was not any available matrix that could serve as a bridge for the
estimation. However, with the total paid and received for this item, we proceeded to
distribute it between the sectors based on those where this kind of transaction is more
common. In doing so, it was considered that the transfers paid by NPISHs and the rest
of the world were received by households as well as those received by these two sectors
were paid by households. The difference of the total paid by households less the amount
paid to NPISHs and the rest of the world was considered received by public
administrations. On the other hand, the received by non- financial corporations and
financial institutions was considered as paid by the public administrations. Internal
transfers between public administrations are available, so that the difference respect the
total paid by them was considered paid to households. The remaining difference of what
was received by households was distributed following the same shares provided by the
IEA for the financial institutions and non-financial sectors. Finally, the difference
20
between the total paid by non-financial and financial sectors respect to that paid to
households, was considered paid to public institutions (Table 6).

Finally, it is important to point out that within this methodological process of
estimation, not only the sub-matrix of property income but also the sub-matrix of Other
Current Transfers can be improved or replaced whenever official data from the INE are
available.
3.3. Construction of submatrices of the Financial Sector of the Economy (Area 3)
The financial account of the FSAM uses data published by the BE which have to be
transformed to extract the required information.
The asset and liability variables across sector come from the primary database tables
for institutional sector and total economy, providing not only the respective annual
balance of the year of study but also the four quarterly flows that these variables have
during the respective year. The maximum disaggregated information provided by the
BE is considered.
The importance of having available both the stocks and the flows implies that the
latter ones are those that would be used properly within the FSAM, while the first ones,
21
the stocks, can be collected in a satellite submatrix that allows estimate the distribution
of the property income as explained above.
The total value of each variable of financial assets and liabilities and their respective
counterpart are available for each institutional. This represents the flow of funds of the
Spanish economy. These tables also complement the information of the FSAM through
satellite matrices that provides detailed information of the flow of funds of the Spanish
Economy.
3.3.1 Sub - matrix of financial assets flows
Table 7 shows the sub-matrix of flows of financial assets. It can be seen from column
3 to 7 the variation of the monetary flows for each financial asset describes in the first
column across the institutional sector of the economy. The totals for each financial asset
and for each institutional sector are shown in last column and row, respectively.
Negative flows (in brackets) imply decreases in asset holdings of the respective
financial instruments, while positive flows imply increases.
As an example, in Table 7, a box marked by the letter “a” shows the flows of assets
for the financial instrument “currency and deposits” (F.2) that each institutional sector
had at the end of 2009. The not financial sector, the financial sector and the rest of the
world, decreased 517, 41,931 and 5,645 billions of Euros, respectively. While the
government and households/ ISFLSH increase the holdings of this asset in 17,814 and
26,901 billions of Euros, respectively, At aggregated level, the currency and deposits
decrease 3,378 billions of Euros.

3.3.2 Sub-matrix of Financial Liabilities Flows
Table 8 shows the flows of financial liabilities. The transpose way respect to Table 7
has to do with how such data appears in the FSAM.
It can be seen the variation of the monetary flow of each financial liability variable
(column 3 to 7) for each institutional sectors (column 1). Last column and row show the
total by institutional sector and by instrument for the aggregate economy.
As an example, in Table 8, a box marked by the letter “b” shows the liability flows
for the financial instrument “currency and deposits” (F.2). that each institutional sector
had at the end of 2009. It can be seen that the issuance of these instruments is
concentrated in two sectors, Financial Institutions which increased in 28,995 billions of
Euros and the Rest of the World with a decrease in 32,321 billions of Euros. A small
amount of 40 billions of Euros increase is reflected by the government. Notice that
aggregate values in Table 8 equal the aggregate values in Table 7. Therefore, these two
Tables are complementary so that they show, on the one hand, which institutional
sectors emit the financial instruments and which institutional sectors have the
possession of them.
(a)
23
In the construction of the FSAM, a difference arise between the net lending or
borrowing calculated provided by the capital account by the NSI respect to that obtained
from the difference between assets and liabilities by BS. In order to reconcile these two
sub- matrices of the area of the financial sector of the FSAM with the rest of the whole
Matrix, one column and one row were incorporated to collect the statistical discrepancy.

3.3.3 Satellites Sub-matrices of Flow of Funds
As previously explained above, Tables 7 and 8 provide the total of flow of asset or
liability that each institutional sector has for each financial instrument. However, it
cannot be seen in those sub-matrices the distribution of each financial instrument that
each institutional sector has respect to the rest of the sector. In order to overcome this,
satellite sub-matrices of flow of funds for each financial instrument are constructed with
the available data provided by the BS. Such sub-matrices are not contained within the
internal structure of the FSAM. Thereby, they are considered satellites. They are shaped
both by rows and by columns for the five institutional sectors. Table 5 shows the results
24
for F.2.5 Rows denote financial liabilities and columns financial assets. The respective
totals for each sector are in last row and column which coincides with boxes (a) and (b)
in Tables 3 and 4, respectively. As can be seen, it shows the breakdown of the liability
flows (on the side of the rows) and the flows of assets (by the side of the columns ) with
each of the institutional sectors.

4. Financial Social Accounting Matrix for 2009
The FSAM structure follows the methodological recommendations contained in the
SNA Manual that were mentioned in the first part of this paper. To the FSAM of Figure
1 has been incorporated some adjustments based on the information available from the
input-output tables at basic prices as well as the breakdown of the components of
demand in domestic and imported. In this regard, Table 9 shows the structure of the
FSAM of Spain with the appropriate information for each of the macroeconomic
variables in 2009. It is shown for each cell in the FSAM the name of the macro variable,
the respective amount and the color that refers to the source of information from which
it is obtained.
5 Results for the rest of instruments are available upon request.
(a)
25
It can be seen in row 1 and column 2 (R1,C2) of Table 9 that the information of the
real sector of the economy comes from the input-output tables, including information of
Net taxes on products (row 4) and imports distributed according to components of
demand (row 11). On the other hand, the variables located on the main diagonal come
from the Integrated Economic Accounts by Institutional Sectors: Property income
(R5,C5), Current taxes on income, wealth , etc. and current transfers (R6,C6),
Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds (R7,C7), and
capital transfers (R8,C8), as much as residents and the Rest of the World (row and
Column 12 and 13),.
Variables representing large aggregates that come from calculation within the FSAM
are also differentiated within the matrix. They are: Net value added (F3,C2), Net income
generated (F5,C3), Net taxes on products (F5,C4), Net national income (F6,C5),
Disposable income (F7,C6), Net savings (F8,C7), Net fixed capital formation (F9,C8),
Imports of goods and services (F12,C11), and current external balance (F13,C12).
Finally, the variables referring to the financial area of the matrix coming from the BS
are: Loans (Acquisition of financial assets) (F10 ,C9) and Debt (Incurrence of
liabilities) (F9 ,C10) for the domestic economy. And, for the rest of the world: Loans
(Acquisition of financial assets of the Rest of the World) (F10,C13) and Debt
(Incurrence of liabilities of the Rest of the World) (F13,C10) . In Table 9 the total
aggregates of the variables are presented. However, they were obtained according to
the distribution shown in Table 1 and 2 with information by institutional sector and
financial instrument. One of the most important aspects of the FSAM at a macro level as
shown in Table 9 is that it allows the validation of the main macroeconomic aggregates
as well as it works as an useful harmonization mechanism to disaggregate different
accounts at rows and columns levels.

It has been also highlighted the sub-matrices that have been the object of the greatest
contribution of this work within the FSAM. The blue boxes represent the work of
disaggregation of the Internal Property Income and with the Rest of the World (Table 5,
Step 4). On the other hand the cream boxes represent the breakdowns of the Financial
Account by financial instrument and institutional sector, which are shown in Tables 7
and 8.
5. Conclusions
This article presents the first financial social accounting matrix (FSAM) for the
Spanish economy. The maximum disaggregation with the data available was obtained.
Thus a 320x320 FSAM was built. The constructions of this tool had to overcome the
difficulties that arise at consolidating data of the Spanish Statistical Institute (INE) and
Bank of Spain (BE). Moreover, we propose an estimation methodology when data are
unavailable. This FSAM goes beyond the traditional SAMs that are especially designed
for answers particular questions of computable general equilibrium (CGE) models and
whose scopes are limited. Therefore, the FSAM presented here could be very useful in
improving and extending the multiplier models for impact analysis of public policies
and Financial CGE models.

Appendix: RAS-Algorithm for obtaining the distribution of property income
A common problem in compiling and updating Social Accounting Matrices (SAM) or
Input–Output (IO) tables is that of incomplete information. In the case of Spain, the
Income and Expenditure Accounts provide only Total Property Income paid and
received by each institutional sector. Thus, the National Bureau of Statistics (INE) does
not breakdown the totals by institutional destination and source.
Missing matrix elements may be due to a variety of reasons, such as costly and therefore
incomplete industry surveys, or the suppression of confidential information. However,
external data points can be used to formulate a system of equations that constrain the
unknown matrix elements.
As Leung and Secrieru (2012) we approximated this breakdown by using data on the
assets and liabilities of each institution compiled in the National Balance Sheet accounts
already estimated by BE applying a RAS-algorithm (Miller and Blair, 2009)
The estimation problem is that, for an nxn matrix, we seek to identify n2 unknown
parameters (the cells of X), but have only 2n – 1 independent row and column adding-
up restrictions.
The RAS-algorithm (Junius and Oosterhaven, 2003), Lenzen, Wood and Gallego ,
2007) iteratively adjusts a baseline known matrix Z, with row sums u(0) and column
sums v(0), to a ‘new’ matrix X that satisfies a ‘new’ set of given row sums u(1) and
column sums v(1). With minimum loss of information the RAS-algorithm produces the
new (target) matrix X with the required row and column sums such that:
X = ř A ŝ
Where ř(1) and ŝ(1) are diagonal matrices with entries on the main diagonal, such that
the vector x(1) = ř i correspond to the total Flow Property Income (target).
Step 1: Based in the matrix Z (Balance Stock), the baseline bi-proportional matrix of
coefficients is obtained:
Z = ř(0) A(0) ŝ(0)
29
Step 2: Beginning with the conjecture that the baseline have not changed, we first
examine the row sums of A(0) x(1), in light of u(1):
Z1 = A(0) x(1) and
u1 = Z1 i
Step 3: Given that u1 is nowhere near to u(1) an adjustment is needed. Then forming the
diagonal adjustment matrix:
ř1 = û(1) [û1]-1 and
A1 = ř1A(0)
The elements in ř1 ensure that the row sums of A1x(1) will equal u(1)
Step 4: Checking the column sums of A1x(1) will not equal v(1). Then, the following
row adjustment is necessary:
ŝ1 = v(1) [v1]-1 and
A2 = A1 ŝ1
While A2 now contains elements that, in conjunction with x(1), satisfy the v(1) margins,
it will generally be the case that in modifying A1 to A2 we will have disturbed the row
sum property of A1, given in the step 3.
Step n: Notice that each subsequent row modification will generally upset the previous
column modification, and vice versa – a column modification will upset the previous
row modification
A2n = [ řn … ř1 ] A(0) [ ŝ1 … ŝn ]
