What STATEC does

STATEC (Institut National de la Statistique et des Études Économiques du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg) is Luxembourg's official national statistical office, operating as a public establishment (établissement public) under the authority of the Ministry of the Economy. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Luxembourg City with 161 employees, STATEC holds the statutory mandate to collect, produce, and disseminate official statistics covering Luxembourg's economy, population, employment, social conditions, businesses, territory, and environment. Its data and publications are accessed primarily through the Statistiques.lu portal and the LUSTAT database, which organizes hundreds of statistical tables across six thematic domains: Social Conditions, Territory/Environment/Energy, Sustainable Development Goals, Economy and Prices, Population and Employment, and Enterprises.

The organization's core technology platform is LUSTAT, an online statistical database providing tabular data with Excel export capability. The product surface extends beyond the database to include Simulateurs (interactive calculators for age groups, indexation, and inflation), Eco&Stat thematic fact sheets, the PIBien-être (GDP-well-being) dashboard, and specialized thematic dossiers such as the consumer price index and inflation resource. STATEC disseminates content through its main portal, a newsletter, an event/conference program, and active social media presence on LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram.

STATEC's business model is government funding: it operates as a non-commercial public service with no revenue from data sales or subscriptions, providing all statistics free of charge to users. Its customer base spans the general public and academic researchers, Luxembourg government ministries and communes, banks and businesses operating in Luxembourg, and international bodies such as Eurostat, the OECD, and the United Nations. The office also participates in the Grande Région Statistical Network for cross-border territorial observation in the Greater Region.

Direct peers

• Statistics Netherlands (CBS): Netherlands' national statistical office, recognized for its data innovation (open data, APIs, linked-data approaches), making it a relevant peer for STATEC on both statistical production and digital dissemination strategy.
• INSEE (Institut National de la Statistique et des Études Économiques): France's national statistical office with the same statutory mandate as STATEC: producing and disseminating official economic, demographic, and social statistics, with similar product lines (databases, publications, dashboards) and alignment with European statistical standards.
• Statbel (Statistics Belgium): Belgium's national statistical office and the closest geographic and institutional peer to STATEC, given shared small-state European statistical office characteristics, Eurostat membership, and similar free public dissemination model.
• Destatis (Statistisches Bundesamt): Germany's federal statistical office, the largest European national statistics institute, operating under the same EU statistical law framework as STATEC and producing comparable official economic and social indicators.
• INE (Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Spain): Spain's national statistical office producing official economic and demographic statistics, comparable to STATEC in institutional role, Eurostat membership, and product offering (databases, thematic publications).
• Statistics Austria (Statistik Austria): Austrian federal statistical office; closely comparable to STATEC as a similarly sized central European national statistics institute with equivalent statutory mandate and Eurostat-aligned methodology.
• ISTAT (Istituto Nazionale di Statistica): Italy's national statistical office, comparable to STATEC as a public establishment producing official statistics on economy, demographics, and social conditions under EU-aligned methodological standards.
• ONS (Office for National Statistics, UK): UK's national statistical institute producing official statistics on economy, population, and society; comparable to STATEC in mandate, product structure (databases, releases, dashboards), and regulatory authority, despite larger scale.

Broad incumbents

• Eurostat: The EU's statistical office, of which STATEC is a contributing national partner; Eurostat aggregates member-state data, sets methodological standards, and is a broader incumbent that defines the framework in which STATEC operates.

Others

• OECD Statistics Directorate: International statistical coordination body that STATEC feeds into; comparable as an aggregator and standard-setter of cross-country statistics, though not a direct service competitor to STATEC's national dissemination function.
