This is a 2018 UK Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) where the UK households have been disaggregated first into 5 quintiles based on the households' gross income, and further into 7 groups where each of the 2 bottom quintiles is split into fuel-poor groups and non-fuel-poor groups. This SAM incorporates the 2018 input-output tables published by the Office for National Statistics, with the sectors being aggregated into 34 broader sectors. The households have been disaggregated using information from the Living Cost and Food Survey and fuel poverty statistics. This SAM is relevant for projects looking to identify not only the economy-wide impacts of shocks to the UK economy, but also explore how households of different incomes are impacted. Moreover, it allows the exploration of shocks to specific household quintiles, especially those in fuel poverty, and how these could affect the wider economy. The dataset is presented in a Microsoft Excel (.xls) file.
