foreign investors. The data are needed to
provide reliable, useful, and timely
measures of foreign direct investment in
the United States, assess its impact on
the U.S. economy, and based upon this
assessment, make informed policy
decisions regarding foreign direct
investment in the United States. The
data are used to derive annual estimates
of the operations of U.S. affiliates of
foreign investors, including their
balance sheets; income statements;
property, plant, and equipment;
employment and employee
compensation; merchandise trade; sales
of goods and services; taxes; and
research and development activity. In
addition, data covering employment are
collected by state. The data are also
used to update similar data for the
universe of U.S. affiliates collected once
every five years on the BE–12
benchmark survey.
No changes in the data collected or in
exemption levels are proposed.
The BE–15 annual survey is sent to
potential respondents in March of each
year. A completed report covering a
reporting company’s fiscal year ending
during the previous calendar year is due
by May 31. Reports must be filed by
every U.S. business enterprise that is
owned 10 percent or more by a foreign
investor and that has total assets, sales
or gross operating revenues, or net
income (or loss) of over $40 million.
As an alternative to filing paper
forms, BEA will offer an electronic filing
option, its eFile system, for use in
reporting on Form BE–15. For more
information about eFile, go to https://
www.bea.gov/efile.
Potential respondents are those U.S.
business enterprises that reported in the
2007 benchmark survey of foreign direct
investment in the United States, along
with businesses that subsequently
entered the direct investment universe.
The BE–15 is a sample survey, as
described; universe estimates are
developed from the reported sample
data.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: Annual.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
