| Summary: | This Technical Assistance report on Republic of Kazakhstan discusses details of National Accounts Statistics mission. The mission assisted the Bureau of National Statistics (BNS) with the development of quarterly gross domestic product by expenditure (GDPE) estimates on a discrete basis. The mission and BNS staff compiled five working files. Real GDPE growth rates for cumulative periods that were compiled from the discrete quarterly data significantly differ from the cumulative growth rates currently published on the website. The mission recommended that the BNS improves the compilation of several indicators such as cultivated biological assets, military expenditures, and price indices for deflating certain types of changes in inventories. The mission analyzed the structure of questionnaire for collecting data on changes in inventories. Further details on the priority recommendations and the related actions/milestones can be found in the action plan under detailed technical assessment and recommendations in this report
