The scope encompasses all formal market entries within the département, omitting internal corporate restructuring, administrative relocations from other jurisdictions, and dormant reactivations. By focusing on this specific territory, the series allows analysts to track local entrepreneurial momentum independently of national fluctuations.

Interpreting the dataset requires attention to potential revisions in early estimates as administrative databases are updated with delayed filings. Analysts should rely on year-on-year comparisons to avoid distortions caused by shifting administrative processing speeds.
