A decrease in enterprise births in October 2011

Enterprise births – October 2011

Warning: From the August issue, only enterprise births data excluding self-managed enterprises (SME) are seasonally adjusted. In order to get the total of enterprise births, the raw number of SME is added. The SME time series is too short to be properly deseasonalized.

In October 2011, the number of enterprise births decreased compared to September: -25.0% for enterprise births excluding self-managed enterprises (seasonally and working-day adjusted data); -15.3% when the number of self-managed enterprises (raw data) is added.

-10.8% year-on-year (quarterly basis)

The amount of entries, added up August, September and October 2011, decreased by 10.8% compared to the same quarter one year before.

The sectors that most contributed to that decrease were service activities and household services.

-12% year-on-year (twelve months basis)

During the last twelve months, the number of births decreased by 12.0% year-on-year.

244,174 self-managed enterprises since the beginning of 2011

From January to October 2011, one out of every two births enterprises were self-managed enterprises (244,174).
