Session B6: Trade and multinational enterprises
DescriptionGlobalisation poses many challenges to those who compile, interpret, analyse and compare complex statistics. Multinational companies, global value chains, Special Purpose Vehicles and the associated capital flows and stocks could seriously affect National Accounts and International Investment Position Statistics. The session examines in the light of trade and multinational enterprise data how these effects might be treated to avoid interpretations that are misleading and not in line with economic fundamentals, and how different countries can be compared based on complex data sets.
