About This Book

Many developing countries have attracted only small amounts of foreign direct investment (FDI) despite their efforts at economic liberalization. UNCTAD has prepared this three volume manual with the aim of helping developing countries to enhance their capacity to compile, analyse and disseminate data on FDI and the operations of transnational corporations (TNCs), based on internationally recommended standards. The volumes are: FDI Flow and Stock Data; Statistics on the Operations of Transnational Corporations; and Collecting and Reporting FDI/TNC Statistics: Institutional Issues. Volume I stresses the importance of collecting data on FDI flows and stocks. It provides definitions and an overview of the existing standards set or used by international organizations and national compilers, and evaluates different approaches to compiling FDI flow and stock data, identifies data complexities and problems, and presents solutions to each of them.
