Build on existing business statistics
• Use micro-data linking to combine all possible datasets for obtaining new and more information e.g. on R&D performers or ICT providers
• Complete statistics with information on control independent/domestic/foreign) and trade (yes/no)
• Take a new look at the multinationals already under statistics' loop
• Advance from preparing manuals and classifications internationally to also producing statistics internationally
Walter J. Radermacher 9
Eurogroups register
• The EuroGroups Register (EGR) contains microdata for multinational enterprise groups. It is part of the network of European business registers
• A multinational enterprise group (MNE) is defined as an enterprise group composed of at least two enterprises or legal units located in different countries
• The EGR data is provided by national statistical business registers in the ESS and from commercial data sources
Walter J. Radermacher 10
Eurogroups register
• National staff of NSIs/NCBs have access to all units of the multinational enterprise groups, if at least one unit of the group is located in their national territory
• The EGR output should be used as survey frames at national level (at the moment increasingly for FATS)
• Annual production cycle with an increasing coverage of multi-national enterprise groups;
• Profiling results will be successively integrated into the EGR
Walter J. Radermacher 11
e-Intermediaries
• e-Intermediaries / e-Platforms
• Internet based; Functions as: travel agency, supermarket, manufacturing, etc.
• E-Intermediaries are potentially borderless … have global reach
• Examples
• B2C (Amazon.com), B2B (Alibaba partly), C2C (Airbnb,
UBER), C2B (Amazon Mechanical Turk) Intermediate (commercial) transactions between two or more parties
• NB: Google, Facebook, etc. have different business model
do not intermediate transactions
Walter J. Radermacher 12
e-Intermediaries
• Statistical measurement issues • What is size of e-Intermediaries
Value added, employment, etc.
• What is size of transactions mediated by e-Intermediaries
Value added, employment, etc.
For example C2C transactions that are not captured in normal surveys
• Statisticians need information • e-Intermediaries has wealth of information relevant
for the production of statistics
• Need mutual trust to exchange data for statistical purposes
• Such data should be treated as public good (no or low cost)
