Maastricht

Convergence criteriaThe international co-operation in the statistical field was not only required sinceAustrias entry into the European Community, but goes as far back as the 19 thcentury (with the establishment of the International Statistical Institute in 1885)and experienced an enormous upward trend within the scope of the OECD and UN.Essential components from the European Communitys foundation contracts have

been integrated into the statistical legislation of individual Member States.

In addition to carrying out political requirements of the communitys institutionalaccounts, this statistical co-operation is aiming to publicise global comparisons inorder to deliver reliable, comparable basic data to the increasing international busi-nesses and institutions.

Especially important is the combined effort with the European Central Bank (ECB).This allows for the National Central Banks and the ECB to be represented, along withEurostat and the National Statistical Offices, in the committee for currency, financeand balance of payments.

The Monetary Unions goal to create a long-lasting community of stability needs asolid economical basis which will be analysed and observed with the help of thefollowing four convergence criteria.

The first criteria is price stability which is a good example showing the necessityfor statistical harmonisation. The national consumer price indices, a significantmeans of recording inflation as well as fundamental negotiations for wages,salaries, retirements and other various value guarantees, etc. on a nationallevel, all differ considerably from one another in their methods. In order todetermine comparable inflation rates, the National Consumer Price Indices have

been harmonised on an European level. The Harmonised Indices of ConsumerPrices (phase II) already fulfil important conditions in order to obtain a fullycomparable and fully harmonised index. The convergence criteria price stabil-ity is only achieved when the inflation rate doesnt increase over 1.5 percent-age points over the average of the three EU countries with the lowest inflationrates. The Monetary Unions inflation rate (CPI-EMU) will be calculated on thebasis of the HICPs of the Member States.

The interest rate convergence criteria examines the reliability of the nationalstability policy against that of the international money markets. This is onlyachieved when the average interest rate of the three Member States with thelowest inflation rate, isnt exceeded by 2 percentage points.

The government deficit and the government debt, both in % of the GDP, havean enormous political importance for indicators for the EC convergence measur-

ing budgetary discipline. The threshold value for these two indicators are 3%and 60%, respectively.

PopulationThere were some 8.443 Mill people living in Austria on 1st January 2012, an

increase of 38 766 people (+0.46%) over the beginning of 2011. The growth in2011 was significantly higher than in the year before (2010: +28 962 people).The population growth could be mainly attributed to a positive balance of interna-tional migration (+35 604 people) as well as in a small part to a natural popula-tion increase. On regional level the highest population growth occurred in Vienna(+1.0%), while only Carinthia experienced a decreasing population (-0.1%).

The annual number of live births in Austria in 2011 was 78 109, a slight decreaseof 0.8% compared with 2010. On regional level the highest decrease occurredin Carinthia (-2.7%), in Vorarlberg (-2.4%) and in Styria (-2.0%). In 2011 thetotal fertility rate (the average number of children per woman) decreased to 1.43(2010: 1.44). 40.4% of all live births were born out of wedlock (2010: 40.1%).

The annual total of deaths accounted for 76 479 in 2011, a decrease of 0.9% com-pared with the 2010 figures. Life expectancy at birth increased to 78.1 years formen and 83.4 years for women (app. +0.3 years each). The infant mortality ratewas 3.6 per thousand live births. On regional level the number of deaths decreasedin Vienna (-2.3%), in Tyrol (-2.2%), in Carinthia (-2.0%), in Styria (-1.6%), inUpper Austria (-0.7%), in Burgenland (-0.5%) and in Vorarlberg (-0.4%), whileSalzburg (+2.9%) and Lower Austria (+0.4) experienced an increasing numberof deaths.

In 2011 the number of marriages was 36 426. Compared with the 2010 figuresthis is a decrease of 3.0%. On regional level the highest decrease occurred in Vorar-lberg (-7.1%), in Burgenland (-6.3%), in Lower Austria (-4.9%) and in Vienna(-3.1%). Two thirds of all marriages were first time marriages; in other words, bothpartners had been single before.

2011 saw 130 208 arrivals from abroad and 94 604 departures to foreign coun-

tries resulting in an international net-migration of 35 604 people. In relation toAustrias resident population, this corresponded to a migration balance rate of4.2 per 1 000. Migration gains thus were about a quarter higher than in 2010(+27 695 people).

At the level of the federal provinces, Vienna remained the prime destination forinternational immigration to Austria. The federal capital accounted for about a

third of the net migration (36% or +12 954 people), followed by Upper Austria(+5 307), Lower Austria (+4 499) and Styria (+3 683).

Employment and the labour marketThe results concerning economically active persons, employed and unemployed are

derived from the sample survey of the micro-census (Labour Force Survey) whichuses the international definition of the ILO.

An employed person is defined as a person who has worked at least one hourfor a fee or had a workplace (including self-employed persons and family workers).Unemployed persons are defined as those who are not in employment, activelylooking for work and available for work within two weeks. Persons in military and

civilian service and in collective households are excluded. Data source for registeredunemployed and registered vacancies is the Austrian Public Employment Agency(Arbeitsmarktservice, AMS).

The annual average of economically active persons (employed and unemployed)according to the Labour Force Survey in 2011 was 4 323 000 (4 144 000employed and 179 000 unemployed). Compared to 2010 there was a higher

number of economically active persons (+47 000 employed and -9 000 unem-ployed). Caused by the different definitions the number of unemployed personsaccording to the Labour Force Survey (179 000) is significantly lower than thenumber of unemployed persons registered at the Austrian Public Employment Agency(247 000). This explains partly the difference in the unemployment rate: Accord-ing to the Labour Force Survey (= international unemployment rate) it decreasedin 2011 to an annual average of 4.2% (2010: 4.4%), according to the AMS

(= national unemployment rate) to 6.7% (2010: 6.9%). The employment ratebased on the Labour Force Survey (concerning age 15 to 64) has been 72.1%in 2011 (2010: 71.7%). According to the ILO definition the annual average ofemployees has been 3 574 000 (1 700 000 women and 1 874 000 men) in2011, thats a higher number than in 2010 in total. The number of parttime-employees increased by 17 000 persons compared with 2010 to 899 000 in2011, the number of fulltime-employees increased by 25 000 to 2 676 000.

The clear-up rate(number of solved cases as a percentage of the total number of cases recorded) thus roseby 2.0 percentage points from 41.4% (2010) to 43.4% (2011).

The number of judicial convictions in 2011 (36 461) decreased by 5.0% (-1 933 cases)in comparison with reporting year 2010. This meant that the number of convictions fellto a historical all-time low. Overall, the number of convictions (based on 1 000 persons

legally considered as of the age of criminal responsibility) for 2011 was 5.01, the lowestfigures since these statistics were first compiled in 1947. The number of convicted adults(28 562) dropped by 5.1% (-1 523 cases) compared to 2010. The number of convictedyoung adults (18 to 20 year olds) decreased by 94 cases (-1.8%) and those of convictedjuveniles (14 to 17 year olds) by 316 cases (-10.3%) in comparison to the previous year.

In 2011, the number of criminal convictions for crimes in contravention of the Austrian

Criminal Code (31 070) decreased by 5.9% (-1 963 cases) compared to 2010. Brokendown by type of offence, there was a decline of convictions in many subgroups.

Prices / Wages / EarningsThe indices calculated by STATISTICS AUSTRIA are not only used to clarify develop-

ments, but to form the basis of indexation and wage negotiations. Particularlywellknown is the consumer price index used as an indicator measuring the inflationin Austria (and at EU-level in form of the harmonised index of consumer prices -HICP) as well as providing the basis for one of the four convergence criteria.

In 2011 the national consumer price index ( 2010=100) rose by 3,3% year onyear (2010: 1,9%, 2009: 0,5% variation year-on-year). The inflation was due toa rise in fuel and heating oil prices, which were well above the price level of previ-ous year. The inflation rate as measured by the HICP was 3,6%.

The wholesale price index ( 2010=100) averaged 108.3 for the year 2011,and rose by 8.3% against the year 2010, due to major price increases of grainand liquid and gaseous fuel.

The index of agreed minimum wages and salaries (2006=100) achieved a 2011year average of 113.1 points and was thus +2.0% above the 2010 value. Theannual change as regards the principal categories was +2.3% for blue-collar work-ers, +2.2% for white-collar workers and +1.1% for civil servants.

With the recent publication of the Price Index for Transport, Machinery and Equip-

ment finalized data are available for the period 2011. Compared to the previousyear the domestic goods showed a price increase of 1.9% and the imported goodsof 1.6%

From 2009 to 2010, the per capita income of employees (calculated within thescope of national accounts) presented a gross nominal increase of 1.6% and a net

nominal increase of 1.4%

Innovation

Innovation expenditures for 2008 for the introduction of product or process innovationsin the industries surveyed are estimated having reached 6.9 billion Euro. This correspondsto approximately 1.7% of total turnover of all enterprises. 61% of these expendituresfell upon intramural R&D and 26% upon the acquisition of machinery, equipment andsoftware.

40% of the technologically innovation active enterprises were publicly subsidized in thecourse of this time. 31% got financial support from the federal government (Bund),22% from local or regional authorities (Lnder - communities or its institutions) and 9%from the European Union.

The most important objective of product and process innovations in the years 2006 to2008 was the improved quality of goods or services. For the introduction of organisa-tional innovations this target was also the most important objective. The most relevantobjective for marketing innovations was the increase or maintenance of the marketshare. 62% of all innovative enterprises reported having introduced an innovation thatcreated environmental benefits compared to alternatives between 2006 and 2008; theseare 35% of all enterprises surveyed.

This survey provides information on the product, process, organisational and marketing

innovations in Austrian enterprises in the years 2006 to 2008. STATISTICS AUSTRIA sur-veyed a sample of enterprises with 10 and more employees in the following industries:Mining and quarrying, manufacturing, electricity and water supply, wholesale trade, trans-port, information and communication, financial and insurance activities as well as selectedother business activities. The survey in Austria was part of the Community InnovationSurvey 2008 (CIS 2008), a survey conducted throughout Europe with a harmonisedquestionnaire.

Science and technologyAustrias R&D Intensity in 2012: 2.80%

According to an estimate of STATISTICS AUSTRIA presumably 8.61 billion Eurowill be spent on research and experimental development (R&D) in 2012. Incomparison to 2011, the total sum of Austrian R&D expenditure will increaseby 4.2% and hence reach 2.80% of the gross domestic product (GDP). Theresearch intensity for 2011 is estimated to be 2.74%; in 2010 it amountedto 2.79%. The largest part of total R&D expenditure 2012 (around 45% or3.84 billion Euro) will be financed by businesses. Funding from the business

enterprise sector will rise by 2.2%, after a slight increase from 2009 to 2010and a larger increase to 2011. The public sector will contribute 39.3% (approx.3.38 billion Euro); of this share, the federal government (Bund) will finance2.87 billion Euro, the regional governments (Lnder) around 411 millionEuro and other public funding from local governments, professional chambers orsocial security institutions wil l contribute about 102 million Euro. 15.6% (1.34billion Euro) will be financed from abroad and 0.6% (approximately 47 million

Euro) by the private non-profit sector. The funds from abroad originate predomi-nantly from foreign enterprises. A considerable part comes from multinationalenterprises whose affiliates in Austria perform R&D and includes backflows fromthe EU Framework Programmes for Research, Technological Development andDemonstration.

Economics

According to preliminary estimates by the Austrian Institute for Economic Research

(WIFO) on behalf of STATISTICS AUSTRIA the Austrian economy increased by 3.1% in2011. Despite a noticeable slowdown in economic dynamics during the fourth quar-ter, this was the most remarkable increase of gross domestic product (GDP) since2007. Moreover, the average growth rates for both the EU countries (+1.5%) and theEuro Zone (+1.4%) were significantly outranged (Source: Eurostat Databank, March2012). Gross domestic product (GDP) at current prices increased by 15.1 bn, or5.3%, to approximately 301.3 bn in 2011. Hence, GDP per inhabitant amounted

to 35.790 (+4.9%). As regards the output approach by industry, manufacturing(+10.4% in real terms) as well as energy and water supply (+12.6%) experiencedthe most conspicuous growth. After declining three years in a row, construction grewby 2.7% in real terms. Again in 2011, financial intermediation (+6.0% in real terms)showed the most significant increase in the service sector. Industry in total (includingmining, energy and construction) grew by 8.2% in real terms, whereas the servicesector incremented only by 1.2% in real terms. The increase in manufacturing was

reflected in an upswing in the export of goods and services, which grew by 10.5% atcurrent prices and 6.7% in real terms, respectively. Capital formation was the predomi-nating component of domestic demand. However, its outstanding real growth of 14.0%was to a significant extent due to the huge increase in inventories (6.7 bn.). Grossfixed capital formation grew by 5.7% in real terms. The largest increase was providedby the investments in machinery (+11.3% in real terms) and transport equipment(+22.5% in real terms). For the first time in three years, investment in dwellings+3.8% in real terms) and other construction (+1.9% in real terms) experienced posi-tive growth rates, too. Final household consumption expenditure incremented only by+0.6% in real terms. Government final consumption expenditure increased by 2.7% inreal terms. Hence, the real growth of total consumption was+1.1%. Compensation ofemployees (i.e. the total remuneration, in cash or in kind, payable by an employer toan employee) increased by 4.7%, whereas the growth of operating surplus and mixed

income was somewhat higher (+5.9%). Just as GDP, real net national disposableincome increased by 3.1%. The implicit price index of GDP (derived from the GDP atcurrent prices and at constant prices respectively, based on previous years prices) was102.1. Thus, the overall price development was a significantly less than the change ofthe consumer prices index (+3.3%).
