Introduction
 Pressing need from trade analysts and
negotiators for more relevant, detailed data
 Are we progressing ? How to monitor progress?
 Suggested approach:
 Look at core recommendations in Manual
 Quality and comparability : 1)multilateral and
bilateral mirror data, 2)Methodological Soundness
Questionnaire.

Core Recommendations of the
Manual
• Collect Balance of Payments (BOP) trade in services data
– i) Using Extended Balance of Payments Services Classification
(EBOPS)
– ii) By partner country
• Collect Foreign Affiliates Trade in Services (FATS) statistics for
basic variables- sales, value added, employment, exports and
imports
– i) By activity (ICFA)
– ii) By partner country
N.B. Concept of modes of supply is fundamental but needs more
statistical development

Balance of Payments Services
• BOP trade in services data are relatively well
established following IMF’s 5th Manual
• Significant progressive improvements in detail and
comparability since mid-nineties
• Data collection by IMF/OECD/Eurostat are adapted
to EBOPS classification
• Partner country data published by Eurostat and
(since 2002) by OECD
• 2004 OECD partner country data cover 28 countries
and 75% of world exports

Foreign Affiliates Trade in Services (FATS)
Statistics
 FATS statistics are
compared with BOP
relatively
underdeveloped
 Data collection expanding at Eurostat, OECD and
UNCTAD
 OECD FATS statistics database covers 5 basic
variables (sales, value added, employment, exports
and imports)
 Inward and outward FATS
 By activity (not ICFA)
 By partner
First OECD publication of FATS statistics 2002,
based on 1998 and 1999 surveys covers 20 countries
in varying detail. The latest questionnaires have
been sent during spring. Replies are expected by 15
September 2005.

Methodological Soundness Questionnaire
• OECD-Eurostat joint initiative sent out
in June 2003
• 35 countries filled the questionnaire.
• Results will be discussed with the
experts first before being made more
widely available.
• Help to compare national practices
and foster good practice.

Conclusions and Questions.
 Much progress (but not all) concentrated so far in
OECD countries BOP Services, FATS and Partner
Country Data
 Mirror statistics useful to identify systematic
differences.
 MSQ will help compare national practices
 Do we need to monitor other aspect of country reporting ?
 Any other comments ?
