The European Committee of Central Balance-Sheet Data Offices (ECCBSO) is an informal body whose members consist of experts either from the Central Balance-Sheet Data Offices belonging to or associated with the National Central Banks (NCB) of the European Community, or from National Statistical Institutes.

The main task of the ECCBSO is to improve the analysis of non-financial corporate enterprises data through the exchange of information and joint studies, on the basis of the work carried out by the national central balance-sheet data offices which collect, store and diffuse descriptive and accounting firm data, and starting from this information, they develop economic and financial research.
