Changes to country groupings and areas
Effective with the January 2009 FT900: U.S. International Trade in Goods and Services release, country groupings and areas are revised to reflect changes for Kosovo, the Euro area, and OPEC.
- The country of Kosovo is listed in exhibits 6 and 6a of the FT-900 supplement.
- Beginning with the data for January 2009, Slovakia is included in the Euro area in exhibit 14 of the FT-900 and exhibit 6 of the FT-900 supplement.
- Indonesia is excluded from OPEC in exhibit 14 of the FT-900 and exhibit 6 of the FT-900 supplement.
The statistics for prior time periods are not affected by these changes.
