Reserve Bank of New Zealand Bank Balance Sheet Survey Procedures and Definitions
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand issues these procedures and definitions to replace the discontinued Standard Statistical Return with an integrated bank balance sheet collection. The document mandates that registered banks report financial data at market values in New Zealand dollars, aligning with international best practices to fill statistical gaps and support macroeconomic analysis. It provides detailed high-level definitions for residency, institutional sector classifications, and specific asset and liability items to ensure consistent and reconcilable data reporting.
