Methodological Notes
1. The statistical business register is the source of the data in this news release. The statistical business register provides one of the most detailed local business profiles in Malta.
2. Business registrations are based on administrative data. Registrations and/or deregistrations do not precisely record commencement or cessation of an activity by a unit. Demographic events such as takeovers, mergers and split-offs are not catered for and may affect the data presented.
3. The data is classified by economic activity according to the NACE (Nomenclature Statistique des Activités Économiques dans la Communauté Européenne) classification of economic activities in the European Union. The data is presented in accordance with NACE Revision 2 Update 1 (NACE Rev. 2.1), reflecting the latest updates to the classification system. To support continuity and facilitate comparison with previous releases, data tables compiled according to NACE Rev. 2 are also provided. Dual coding of economic activity classifications, covering both NACE Rev. 2 and NACE Rev. 2.1 has been implemented in the statistical business register from 2021 onwards.
The main changes in the classification at NACE section level introduced by NACE Rev. 2.1, compared with NACE Rev. 2, include:
a. Section J of NACE Rev. 2 has been split into two sections: Section J, ‘Publishing, broadcasting, and content production and distribution activities’ and Section K ‘Telecommunication, computer programming, consulting, computing infrastructure and other information service activities’. As a result, all the subsequent sections in NACE Rev. 2.1 shifted up one letter.
b. Group 41.1 ‘Development of building projects’ has been removed from section F. Its sole class, 41.10, has been reclassified under class 68.12 within section M (formerly section L).
c. Division 45 ‘Wholesale and retail trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles’ has been discontinued from section G. The wholesale and retail activities of motor vehicles and motorcycles have been allocated to division 46 and 47 respectively, while the activities of maintenance and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles were moved to section T (formerly section S).
d. The classification of real estate rental activities has been refined: rentals of own or leased real estate for periods of less than one year are now classified under Division 55 (Section I), whereas rentals for one year or longer remain under Division 68 (Section M – formerly section L).
More information on the reclassification can be found in the relevant Press Information Notice and in the News article by Eurostat.
4. Other types of legal structures may include public corporations, cooperatives and joint ventures.
5. Micro enterprises include non-trading units.
6. Updates in the statistical business register are ongoing and all figures reported are subject to revision.
7. Registered business units include all units that were registered for at least one day during the reporting period. Units that ceased operating, as shown in Table 3 and Table 6, are still included among the registered business units in Tables 1, 2, 4 and 5 if they were registered for at least one day in the year in which their deregistration occurred.
