Statistician's Comment
The Central Statistics Office (CSO) has today (10 November 2023) released Estimates of the Capital Stock of Fixed Assets 2022.
Commenting on the results, Marie O’Neill, Statistician in the National Accounts Integration section, said:
“The value of the stock of produced assets stood at €1.2 trillion at the end of 2022, an increase of 7.8%, or €90 billion, since the end of 2021.
The largest rise was seen in the Real Estate sector, which grew by €63 billion (+19.1%) to €395 billion by the end of the year. This was primarily due to a climb in the value of Dwellings, which rose by €59 billion (+19.4%) to a total of €362 billion.
While most sectors saw an increase in the value of their net stock, a decrease was seen in the Manufacturing sector, which fell by €3 billion (-1.1%) and the Information & Communication sector, which dropped by €1 billion (-0.7%). These reductions were driven by a decline in Research & Development (R&D) related assets, which fell by €21 billion (-5.4%), to a total of €362 billion.
The value of other Machinery & Equipment rose by 28.9% (+€11 billion), to stand at €49 billion by the end of 2022.”
