| 01-21646 | International Services Surveys: BE-20, Benchmark Survey of Selected Services Transactions With Unaffiliated Foreign Persons | Proposed Rule | This document sets forth proposed rules to amend the reporting requirements for the BE-20, Benchmark Survey of Selected Services Transactions with Unaffiliated Foreign Persons. The BE-20 survey is conducted by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), U.S. Department of Commerce, under the International Investment and Trade in Services Survey Act. The data are needed to support U.S. trade policy initiatives; compile the U.S. international transactions, national income and product, and input-output accounts; assess U.S. competitiveness in international trade in services; and improve the ability of U.S. businesses to identify and evaluate market opportunities. BEA proposes to raise the exemption level for the BE-20 survey to $1 million in covered sales or purchases transactions from $500,000 on the previous (1996) survey. Raising the exemption level will reduce respondent burden, particularly for small companies. The proposed rule also: creates new categories for other trade- related services, auxiliary insurance services, and waste treatment and depollution services; adds coverage of transcription services to "other" private services; and amends several other service categories. These proposed changes will close some statistical gaps in the coverage of cross-border services transactions and bring the survey into better compliance with international standards for compilation of statistics on trade in services. | 2001-08-28 | 2001 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/08/28/01-21646/international-services-surveys-be-20-benchmark-survey-of-selected-services-transactions-with | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-08-28/pdf/01-21646.pdf | Commerce Department; Economic Analysis Bureau | 54,118 | This document sets forth proposed rules to amend the reporting requirements for the BE-20, Benchmark Survey of Selected Services Transactions with Unaffiliated Foreign Persons.
