  • Gross Domestic Product for 2019/20 estimated at £39.0 million

    Gross Domestic Product for 2019/20 estimated at £39.0 million

    The Statistics Office has today released estimates of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Gross National Income (GNI) for the 2019/20 financial year, together with revisions for some earlier years. GDP is a measure of the total value of all the goods and services produced on St Helena, and for 2019/20 it is estimated to have been £39.0 million, or £8,540 per person. GNI, a measure of the total income of all economic units resident on St Helena, is estimated to have been £37.6 million, or £8,250 per person.

    When price inflation is taken into account, total GDP is estimated to have fallen by 3.4% compared to the previous year, but when population changes are also taken into account, GDP per capita fell by only 0.7%. There were two major contributors to the fall in GDP, the end of construction activity of the Bulk Fuel facility in Ruperts, and a drop of around £0.9m in tax revenue from imports of fuel, alcohol and tobacco recorded in the St Helena Government Financial Statements for 2019/20.

    Apart from Government and Public Administration, which accounted for 43.5% of GDP at basic prices in 2019/20, the largest sector in terms of total contribution to GDP is Finance, Insurance, Information and Communication (16.5%) and Wholesale and Retail Trade, including Repair of Vehicles and Motor Cycles (13.3%). Production activities, including Quarrying, Manufacturing, Electricity, Water, and Sanitation, contributed around 8.1% of GDP in basic prices in 2019/20, with Construction, Real Estate Activities (including rental properties), and Transportation and Storage (including the Airport) all around 4%.

    The full Statistical Bulletin can be found on the St Helena Government website here: https://www.sainthelena.gov.sh/st-helena/statistics/statistics-reports-and-publications. Detailed data can be accessed in Excel format from the ‘GDP’ file at: https://www.sainthelena.gov.sh/st-helena/statistics/

  • Annual Price Inflation Rate at 0.7%

    For the second quarter of 2021 the Retail Price Index has been measured at 107.5 (Chart 1). This is an increase of 1.2% from three months ago, when the Index stood at 106.3. It is also an increase of 0.7% from a year ago, when the RPI was 106.8. This means that the annual inflation rate is 0.7%, comparing prices in the second quarter of 2021 to the same time period in 2020.

    Chart 1. St Helena Retail Price Index Q2 2014 to Q2 2021 (Q1 2018=100)

    Notable increases in prices over the year include items in the alcohol and tobacco category and the Miscellaneous Goods and Services category. Notable decreases in annual prices included the price of fuel; petrol fell from £1.35 to £1.28 per litre, and diesel from £1.37 to £1.35 a litre.

    The Index uses 203 representative items to measure price changes in nine different categories of household spending. Since a year ago, 57 items increased in price, 45 items decreased in price, and the price of 101 items remained unchanged. However, in the shorter term, looking at price changes in the last three months, 46 items in the RPI increased in price and only 15 items fell in price; this is reflected in the upward movement in the index in Q2 2021 compared to Q1.

  • St Helena Population and Housing Census 2021: Initial Results Released

    Initial Report Highlights

    • Resident population of St Helena 4,439 on Census night
    • Districts with the most residents are Half Tree Hollow, St Pauls and Longwood
    • Number of St Helenians aged 65 and over continues to rise

    Initial results from the 2021 Population and Housing Census, which took place on 7 February (Census night), have today been released by the St Helena Statistics Office.

    On Census night there were 4,439 people living on St Helena – this includes people who were temporarily abroad but does not include those visiting the Island for a short time. This is slightly lower than in 2016 when 4,534 residents had been recorded.  Out of the 4,439 people recorded in 2021, 4,114 were St Helenian.

    Adding in the short-term visitors, the total number of people counted in this year’s Census was 4,477. When compared to the 2016 Census this number is quite small but is due to the travel restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The numbers in 2016 had included persons on board the RMS St Helena, which was in the harbour.

    Out of St Helena’s eight electoral districts, the largest number of people on St Helena live in Half Tree Hollow – a total of 1,034 which is almost exactly the same as in 2016. The second largest district is St Pauls, with 928 residents (82 more than in 2016) and Longwood is third, with 765 (128 lower than in 2016, due to the departure of foreign construction workers from the Bradley’s work camp when the Airport was completed).

    Blue Hill and Sandy Bay remain the smallest districts in terms of people, holding about the same number each.

    St Helena is getting older, with the number of St Helenians aged 65 and over continuing to rise. The 2021 Census counted 1,087 resident St Helenians aged 65 or older – a quarter of the total number of people living on the Island and 18% more than in 2016.

    This ageing trend is mainly due to increasing life expectancies, and the return of St Helenians who left to work abroad when they were younger, typically from the United Kingdom, Ascension, or The Falklands.

    Full details of the 2021 Housing and Population Census Initial Results are available in the latest Statistical Bulletin, found on the St Helena Government website here: https://www.sainthelena.gov.sh/st-helena/statistics/statistics-reports-and-publications/.

    Here is an infographic comparing initial results from the 2021 and 2016 Census.

    All figures and statistics from the 2021 Census in the Bulletin and Infographic are provisional, and may be revised as part of the data quality checking, editing and coding process currently being undertaken by the Statistics Office.
