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 November 2011, the number of enterprise births decreased compared to October: +44.4% for enterprise births excluding self-managed enterprises (seasonally and working-day adjusted data); +20.6% when the number of self-managed enterprises (raw data) is added.
The amount of entries, added up September, October and November 2011, decreased by 8.8% compared to the same quarter one year before.
The sectors that most contributed to that decrease were service activities and household services.
During the last twelve months, the number of births decreased by 12.3% year-on-year.
From January to November 2011, one out of every two births enterprises were self-managed enterprises (270,614).
