Enterprise Multi-location Viewer (VIME)

The National Statistics Institute (INE) and the Bank of Spain have produced the experimental statistics: Business Multi-location Visualiser (VIME), which illustrates the distribution of companies with multiple locations in Spain and facilitates the analysis of their activity.

The annual accounts of multi-localised companies (balance sheets, profit and loss accounts, annual reports, etc.) sometimes provide some geographical details, but do not allow the identification of the municipalities in which they are established. In this sense, VIME provides a complementary vision that allows localisation by municipalities, enriching the geographical analysis.

The data sources used are the Central Companies Directory (DIRCE) of the INE and the annual company accounts available in the Central Balance Sheet Data Office of the Bank of Spain (whose ultimate main data source is the Spanish Association of Property and Mercantile Registrars (CORPME)).

This information can facilitate the design of economic policies, study the interregional connections of companies domiciled in one area with productive establishments in others or allow the evaluation of the economic impact of adverse phenomena that affect specific geographical areas, such as the consequences of the DANA in Valencia on business activity.
