International economics of European CCS

According to Directive 2014/26/EU, CCSs of the European Economic Area (EEA) are obliged to publish annual transparency reports. These transparency reports allow for a deeper analysis of the CCS' financial data. We provide a second statistical tool that allows insight into the international payment flows of 18 CCSs of the EEA in the year 2019. The transactions displayed can be ranked according to various criteria.
These are, among others, the absolute sum of the amounts received/paid from/to other CCSs or the relative market shares of the same.
Furthermore, the amounts can be put in relation to each other, e.g. to the total turnover, which includes the national revenues.
