Abstract

Beyond income, wealth is one of most relevant components among national and international indicators of household finances. Three surveys that include Switzerland have recently integrated questions about wealth and its components. These surveys are the Swiss Household Panel -SHP- (2016), the Statistics on Income and Living Conditions -CH-SILC- (2015), and the Survey on Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe -SHARE- (2015). Following three important criteria suggested by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), namely relevance, coherence and accuracy, this study systematically compares data on housing and financial wealth. The analysis addresses question wording, the comparison with national accounts and accuracy. Results suggest that SHARE is the most relevant survey in terms of financial wealth and total net worth. CH-SILC is a coherent survey that allows for additional analysis on subjective living conditions, while the SHP is an ecological survey in terms of the number of questions on wealth.
瑞士财富调查数据比较
除了收入之外,财富是家庭财务的国家和国际指标中最相关的组成部分之一。包括瑞士在内的三项调查最近整合了有关财富及其组成部分的问题。这些调查是瑞士家庭小组- shp -(2016)、收入和生活条件统计- ch - silc -(2015)和欧洲健康、老龄化和退休调查- share -(2015)。遵循经济合作与发展组织(OECD)提出的三个重要标准,即相关性、一致性和准确性,本研究系统地比较了住房和金融财富的数据。分析涉及问题措辞、与国民核算的比较以及准确性。结果表明,就金融财富和总净值而言,SHARE是最相关的调查。CH-SILC是一项连贯的调查,允许对主观生活条件进行额外的分析,而SHP是一项关于财富问题数量的生态调查。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Economic and Social Measurement (JESM) is a quarterly journal that is concerned with the investigation of all aspects of production, distribution and use of economic and other societal statistical data, and with the use of computers in that context. JESM publishes articles that consider the statistical methodology of economic and social science measurements. It is concerned with the methods and problems of data distribution, including the design and implementation of data base systems and, more generally, computer software and hardware for distributing and accessing statistical data files. Its focus on computer software also includes the valuation of algorithms and their implementation, assessing the degree to which particular algorithms may yield more or less accurate computed results. It addresses the technical and even legal problems of the collection and use of data, legislation and administrative actions affecting government produced or distributed data files, and similar topics. The journal serves as a forum for the exchange of information and views between data producers and users. In addition, it considers the various uses to which statistical data may be put, particularly to the degree that these uses illustrate or affect the properties of the data. The data considered in JESM are usually economic or social, as mentioned, but this is not a requirement; the editorial policies of JESM do not place a priori restrictions upon the data that might be considered within individual articles. Furthermore, there are no limitations concerning the source of the data.
