Book excerpt: A diagnostic technical assistance mission from the IMF’s Statistics Department (STA) visited Seychelles during April 8-19, 2024, to support the authorities in improving the compilation and dissemination of government finance statistics (GFS) and public sector debt statistics (PSDS). The mission assisted the Ministry of Finance, National Planning and Trade, and the National Bureau of Statistics to broaden the institutional coverage of fiscal statistics through hands-on training and methodological guidance in deriving a draft public sector institutional table. The mission also supported the authorities in reviewing data sources, compilation, and dissemination practices for GFS and PSDS, as well as in streamlining working files for high frequency and annual fiscal statistics. This effort will help the authorities reduce statistical discrepancies and resume the submission of GFS data to STA.
