Survey on the Financial and Borrowing Situation of Enterprises in Albania
Since 2010, the Bank of Albania has been conducting a half-yearly survey on the "Financial and borrowing situation of enterprises in Albania". This survey uses a random sample of about 1200 enterprises, selected and interviewed by INSTAT. According to INSTAT’s methodology, enterprises are selected from across country, operate in the main sectors of the economy, and adequately reflect the categorisation into small, medium-sized and large enterprises. This survey aims to provide additional information on different aspects of the financial and borrowing situation of enterprises, which cannot be otherwise obtained from official data. The information gathered from this survey serves to complete and further deepen the analyses that are currently conducted by the Bank of Albania with regard to identifying and monitoring the risks that the financial system may face from the exposure of enterprises.
