REVISIONS

In this issue revisions have been made to the original series as a result of improved reporting of survey and administrative data. These revisions impact on:
  • Commercial finance values for September 2010 and October 2010; and
  • Owner occupied housing finance values for October 2010.

Seasonally adjusted and trend series have been revised as a result of revisions to the original series, the incorporation of estimates for the latest month and the revision of seasonal factors due to the concurrent seasonal adjustment methodology.


CHANGES IN THIS ISSUE

The seasonally adjusted and trend estimates in this publication have been revised as a result of the annual seasonal reanalysis which reviews the seasonal and trading day factors in more detail than possible in the monthly processing cycle and assesses the appropriateness of any prior corrections.
