St. Lucia: Technical Assistance Report-Remote National Accounts Mission, (USA: International Monetary Fund, 2023) accessed November 13, 2024

Summary

A remote mission to the National Accounts Department (NAD) of Saint Lucia supported the development of rebased estimates of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by expenditure. The mission compiled a candidate methodology for all components of the expenditure, covering current and constant price series for both annual and quarterly estimates of GDP. The new estimates will be benchmarked from the last Supply and Use Table from 2016. The method will replace the previous approach which was only compiled annually in current prices – which was last published in 2018.
