-3T E C H N IC A L N O T E
F o r the th ird consecutive year, the B ureau o f E conom ic A nalysis is releasing

T h e estim ates p resented in this release w ere constructed from data collected by
B E A in tw o distinct surveys o f M N C operations: (1) a survey o f U .S. M N C s th at covers
th e operations o f both U .S. parent com panies and their foreign affiliates, and (2) a survey
o f the operations o f U .S. affiliates o f foreign M N C s. B ecause a U .S. parent com pany
m ay itse lf be foreign-ow ned, there is som e overlap betw een the data on U .S. parent
co m p an ies and on U .S. affiliates; thus, to avoid duplication, d ata on U .S. parents and U .S.
affiliates should not b e added to g eth er to produce U .S. totals.
T he estim ates presented here pertain to n o n bank U .S. p aren t com panies and their
m ajority-ow ned n on b an k foreign affiliates, and to m ajority-ow ned nonbank U .S.

affiliates that are not m ajority-ow ned, w ill be p resented in the S u r v e y o f C u r r e n t B u s i n e s s

m ajority-ow ned em ployed 1.5 m illion w orkers, and non b an k U .S. affiliates th at w ere n ot
m ajority-ow ned em ployed 0.5 m illion w orkers, in 2003. D ata on banks are collected only
in b en ch m ark years. T he m ost recent data on U .S. parents and foreign affiliates in
ban k in g co v er the benchm ark-survey year 1999: T hese data show th at U .S. ban k parents
em ployed 1.0 m illion w orkers, and that bank and non b an k foreign affiliates o f U .S. bank
parents, plus bank affiliates o f U .S. non b an k parents, to g eth er em ployed 0.2 m illion
w orkers in 1999. (D ata on U .S. p arents and foreign affiliates in banking in 2004 w ill be
in clu d ed in the presentation o f final results from the 2004 b en ch m ark survey.) T h e m ost
recen t data on U .S. affiliates in banking co v er the benchm ark-survey year 2002: These
data show th at U .S. affiliates that w ere banks em ployed 0.1 m illion w orkers in 2002. F o r
both U .S. b an k affiliates o f foreign com panies and foreign b an k affiliates o f U .S.
co m panies, alm ost all o f the em ploym ent w as by m ajority-ow ned affiliates.
In addition to presenting data collected directly in its surveys o f M N C operations,
B E A uses data collected on costs in cu rred and profits earned in p roduction to estim ate the
value added o f U .S. parent com panies, o f m ajority-ow ned foreign affiliates, and o f
