Take part in a webinar, co-hosted by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis and the Association for Corporate Growth, on Thursday, July 16, at 2 p.m., where you’ll receive an overview of the BE–10 Benchmark Survey of U.S. Direct Investment Abroad and learn more about how it applies to private funds.

This webinar will explain the filing requirements, offer tips, and answer questions to assist private funds in completing the survey. To register, please go to this site and provide the required information.

While neither the survey nor the data collected are new (it was last conducted in 2009), many potential new filers have become aware of the survey for the first time. Private funds are required to participate in the BE–10 survey if they own or control “foreign affiliates” directly or through U.S. portfolio companies that they control. For additional information regarding the BE–10 survey, please visit this section on BEA’s Web site.
