An increase in enterprise births in June 2012

Enterprise births – June 2012

Warning: Only enterprise births data excluding self-managed enterprises (SME) are seasonally adjusted. In February 2012, the seasonal adjustment model has been reviewed. 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 June 2012, the number of enterprise births increased compared to May: +1.8% for enterprise births excluding self-managed enterprises (seasonally and working-day adjusted data); +5.5% when the number of self-managed enterprises (raw data) is added.

-1.2% year-on-year (quarterly basis)

The amount of entries in the second quarter 2012 slightly decreased compared to the second quarter 2011 (-1.2%).

The sectors that most contributed to that decrease were wholesale and retail trade and business support activities.

-3.2% year-on-year (twelve months basis)

During the last twelve months, the number of births decreased by 3.2% year-on-year.

163,734 self-managed enterprises since the beginning of 2012

For the first six months of 2012, one out of every two births enterprises were self-managed enterprises (163,734).
