Imports and exports Trade in goods and services: Change of ownership of goods between residents and non-residents All services rendered by residents to non-residents and vice versa Problems: Transit trade (Rotterdam) Internal transfer pricing (within multinationals) Asymmetries between countries

Foreign direct investment
Foreign direct investment The amount of profit that is distributed and the amount that is reinvested is a decision of the direct investor: therefore, all profit (D.42 and D.43) is attributed to the parent company When not 100% of the shares is owned by one company, then the dividend payments and RIE are divided proportionally among the shareholders D.43 has direct relationship with AF.5: RIE is actually an increase of the FDI
