Activities of U.S. affiliates of foreign multinational enterprises in 2012.

Anderson, Thomas

THE BUREAU OF Economic Analysis (BEA) has released preliminary statistics on the activities of U.S. affiliates of foreign multinational enterprises (MNEs) in 2012. These statistics are based on the results of the 2012 Benchmark Survey of Foreign Direct Investment in the United States ("inward" direct investment). These statistics cover the finances and operations of U.S. affiliates of foreign MNEs--including balance sheet and income statement details, employment and employee compensation, capital expenditures, trade in goods, and expenditures for research and development. The activities of majority-owned U.S. affiliates are featured in the statistics. Less detailed statistics are also presented for all U.S. affiliates (both majority owned and minority owned). BEA also produces statistics that cover the domestic and foreign activities of U.S. MNEs, that is enterprises involved in "outward" direct investment. Jointly, these statistics and the statistics on the activities of U.S. affiliates are referred to as statistics on the activities of multinational enterprises (AMNEs). (1)

As noted in table 1, the current-dollar value added of majority-owned U.S. affiliates, a measure of their contribution to U.S. gross domestic product, totaled $773.8 billion in 2012. Current-dollar value added rose 3.7 percent in 2012, following larger increases in 2010 and 2011, but it grew less rapidly than the value added of all U.S. private industry in 2012. As a result, affiliates' share of U.S. private industry value added decreased from 6.2 percent in 2011 to 6.1 percent in 2012.

Majority-owned U.S. affiliates employed 5.8 million workers in 2012, an increase of 1.3 percent, following larger increases in 2010 and 2011. The share of U.S. private industry employment accounted for by these affiliates was 5.0 percent, down from 5.1 percent in 2011.

Some additional highlights of the statistics on majority-owned U.S. affiliates for 2012:

* As in previous years, affiliates with ultimate beneficial owners (UBO) in seven countries--Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and Japan--accounted for nearly three-fourths of the value added by all majority-owned U.S. affiliates.

* Exports of goods by affiliates rose 5 percent.

* Imports of goods by affiliates rose 4 percent. About 60 percent of the goods imported by affiliates were intended for resale without further processing.

* Research and development (R&D) performed by affiliates rose 6 percent.

Tables 2.1-3.2 at the end of this article present data on value added, trade, R&D, and other items by country of UBO and industry of affiliate.

Benchmark surveys are BEA's most comprehensive surveys of direct investment in terms of both coverage and the amount of data collected. The 2012 benchmark survey covered U.S. affiliates of foreign multinational enterprises of all sizes. The survey collected detailed information on the financial structure and operations of U.S. affiliates and on the transactions and positions between U.S. affiliates and their foreign parent enterprises. To minimize respondent burden, affiliates filed one of three survey forms--the BE-12A, BE-12B, or BE-12C--depending on size (measured by assets, sales, and net income (loss)) and ownership status. The largest majority-owned affiliates filed the BE-12A, the most comprehensive form. Smaller affiliates and minority-owned affiliates filed the less comprehensive BE-12B or BE-12C. (2)

In addition to the data on balance sheet and income statement information, employment and employee compensation, capital expenditures, trade in goods, and expenditures for research and development collected on the annual surveys, the benchmark survey also collected detailed data on the trade in goods by U.S. affiliates. These statistics cover U.S. affiliates' exports and imports of goods by source or destination country and U.S. affiliates' imports of goods by intended use. Unlike previous benchmark surveys, the 2012 survey did not collect data on employment by occupational group or the number of employees covered by collective bargaining agreements because outreach to survey respondents indicated that these items are difficult to report given the information available in company records.

1. Starting with the release of the 2012 preliminary statistics, BEA has adopted the use of standard international terminology in BEA's international economic accounts by replacing the term "multinational companies" with "multinational enterprises" and the term "financial and operating" statistics with statistics on the "activities of multinational enterprises." This change in terminology reflects BEA's efforts to conform more closely to international guidelines and does not affect the actual statistics produced. The most recent outward AMNE statistics are for 2012 and are described in Raymond J. Mataloni, "Activities of U.S. Multinational Enterprises in 2012" Survey of Current Business 94 (August 2014).

2. The concepts and definitions underlying this benchmark survey are essentially the same as those underlying the 2007 benchmark survey. The methodology of the 2007 survey is available on BEA's Web site. The methodology for the 2012 survey will accompany the release of the final results in 2015. Further information about the 2012 benchmark survey is available on BEA's Web site.

Data Availability

Detailed preliminary statistics from the 2012 Benchmark Survey of Foreign Direct Investment in the United States (inward AMNE statistics) have been posted in electronic files that can be downloaded at no charge from BEA's Web site. The preliminary results from the benchmark survey incorporate BEA estimates for reports that were not received or could not be processed in time for publication. The final results, which will be released in 2015, will incorporate data from all reports submitted to BEA. Historically, revisions resulting from the incorporation of final results have been generally modest but could be sizable for some countries, industries, states, or items.

Detailed inward AMNE statistics beginning with statistics for 1977 and including newly revised statistics for 2011 and information about these products and how to access them are available on BEA's Web site.

(1.) For improved comparability with U.S.-affiliate value added, U.S.
private industry value added was adjusted to exclude
value added in private households, imputed rental income from
owner-occupied housing, and business transfer payments.
For the latest estimates of U.S. private industry value added, see
Donald D. Kim, Erich H. Strassner, and David B.
Wasshausen, "Industry Economic Accounts: Results of the Comprehensive
Revision Revised Statistics for 1997-2012"
Survey of Current Business 94 (Feb. 2014).
(2.) For improved comparability with U.S.-affiliate employment, U.S.
private industry employment was adjusted to exclude
employment in private households. For consistency with the coverage of
the data on U.S. private industry employment,
U.S.-affiliate employment in Puerto Rico, in "other U.S. areas," and
in "foreign" was excluded from the U.S.-affiliate totals
when the employment shares were computed. Data on all U.S. private
industry employment are derived from table 6.4D of
the BEA's National Income and Product Accounts.
(3.) Statistics on value added for all majority-owned U.S. affiliates
are not available before 2007 because the data needed
to estimate value for bank affiliates were not collected on BEA's
annual or benchmark surveys.
