The share of culture in the national economy in 2019 did not change compared to 2018 and accounted for 2.8%. Three domains dominated most of the transactions that made up the cultural satellite account: Advertising, Audio-visual arts and multimedia as well as Books and Press.
The culture satellite account makes it possible to estimate the contribution of the area of culture, understood as the activity of local government and state cultural institutions, non-governmental organisations operating in the field of culture, and entities belonging to the cultural and creative industries, to the national economy. The share of the culture area in the national economy is best assessed by the gross value added of the area of culture in relation to the gross value added of the entire economy. In 2019 that value amounted to 2.8%, as in 2018. The largest share in the creation of the gross value added in the cultural area had entities belonging to the Advertising domain (19.4% of the gross value added in the area of culture). Audio-visual arts and multimedia (16.7%) as well as Books and press (13.6%) had also a significant share. The smallest share in the generation of gross value added was observed for the Culture management and administration domain (0.4%).
