1. The System of National Accounts 1993 (1993 SNA) was unanimously recommended to the United Nations Economic and Social Council by its Statistical Commission at its 24th session in March 1993. Similar to the recommendation made in 1968 for its predecessor, A System of National Accounts (1968 SNA), the Council in its resolution 1993/5 of 12 July 1993 recommends that members states use the 1993 SNA in the international reporting of comparable national accounting data. However, it should be highlighted that the Council went a few steps further in 1993 and also recommends that member states consider using the 1993 SNA: (a) as the standard for the compilation of their national accounts statistics, (b) to promote the integration of economic and related statistics, and (c) as an analytical tool.
