1. What are Fats and who does compile them? FATS are statistics on trade and activity of Multinationals ’ Affiliates (“foreign affiliates”) developed to analyze their specific role. The domain is at the crossing of Business, BoP and IIP statistics: on a subset of FDI stocks (entities directly controlled), FATS measure sales (turnover), exports and imports of goods and services, value added and employment, of resident (inward) and non resident (outward) affiliates of multinational enterprises (MNEs) 1. These statistics were initially required for policy purpose to follow up the extension of "commercial presence " as a mode of international supply of services, within the GATS framework (e. g. WTO mode 3). But FATS have in fact a broader, analytical, purpose, that is to improve our understanding of BoP trends, by identifying the particular role of MNEs ’ affiliates in all BoP transactions (goods and services, investment income flows, loans, deposits…). This involves a coverage of all industries and not only services activities (Eurostat, 2003). Depending on the country, the compilation is made either by Central Bank, by National Statistical Office, by a specific institution, or even by a cooperation between these different players. 2. How are they compiled?
