Data dissemination standards (SDDS)

Data dissemination standards are important because they help enhance the availability of timely and comprehensive statistics, which contributes to the pursuit of sound macroeconomic policies and efficient functioning of financial markets. At the Eighth Review of the Fund’s Data Standards Initiatives in February 2012, the IMF’s Executive Board approved several enhancements to the SDDS and endorsed the creation of the SDDS Plus (described below).

Statistical Business Register

The TBR was created according to the Decree No. 94-780 of April 4, 1994 which consists that the INS is charged of the initialization of the Business Register, the updating, the management and the dissemination of statistics. The main partners of the INS in the management of the Business Register are the Finance Ministry (DGI) and the Social Security Fund (CNSS). Indeed the Business Register is based on the collection of enterprises’ information that can be held by different administrations as part of their own activities.
