Method and sources

The register (2023 to 2025) holds 23,591 entries. 19,021 of them are shown. These are the recipients with an enterprise number that are legal entities. Not shown: 3,944 without an enterprise number, 626 with a number no longer (or never) in the open KBO data.

BOSA states no currency with its amounts; they are shown as published. Most transfers are filed under an establishment unit and linked to its enterprise.

The register at its source: FPS BOSA, financial transfers of the federal government (opens the source's website)

The figures come from five public registers, updated every night: the Flemish subsidy register, the subsidy cadastre of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, the federal government's financial transfers (FPS BOSA), the European Commission's Financial Transparency System and the CORDIS research database. The figures are as the register publishes them. Checked adds them up per recipient, year and programme, within one register.

The registers do not count the same money. They hold awarded and paid subsidies, payments, invoiced transfers, attributed shares of EU commitments and contributions to research projects. So one register is shown at a time, never a total across registers.

Only legal entities with an enterprise number appear in the lists. Natural persons and sole traders are not shown, even where the register states their number. They do count in the register's coverage.
