The Bank of Greece launches the compilation and publication of new aggregate securities issues statistics based on the new compilation methodology under the relevant ECB Guideline (ECB/2022/25).

The new statistical information is produced from microdata included in the Centralised Securities Database (CSDB), a single information technology infrastructure of the European System of Central Banks. This database includes analytical information on all ISIN[1] securities issued by euro area residents.

The data published relate to securities (debt securities and listed shares) issued by domestic residents, both on the Greek and on foreign capital markets.

The information is provided by issuer sector and by type of security (short-term/long-term debt securities, fixed-rate/floating-rate debt securities, listed shares).

Data on debt securities are recorded at face value, while data on listed shares at market value.

Data refer to outstanding amounts at the end of each period, as well as gross issues and redemptions during each period.
