equipment; employment and employee
compensation; merchandise trade; sales
of goods and services; taxes; and
research and development activity. The

every five years. The data are needed to
measure the size and economic
significance of direct investment abroad,
measure changes in such investment,
and assess its impact on the U.S. and
foreign economies.
The data from the survey are
primarily intended as general purpose
statistics. They should be readily
available to answer any number of
research and policy questions related to
U.S. direct investment abroad.

for-profit organizations.
