The households gross disposable income in the Natonal Accounts (NA) isx as a ruelx significantly larger than the disposable income aggregate as measured by the survey ERFS (+21% in 2016).
The bulk of this gapx howeverx results from diferences in the concepts and the scope of the two sources. Controlling for these diferences restore the consistency. Stllx a few divergences remain on some components that the fiscal data used by ERFS do not cover as satsfactorily as the NA.
