Statistics: balance of payments, trade in services & FDI

This procedure aims to update and harmonize how EU member states collect and report data on their balance of payments, international trade in services, and foreign direct investment. Standardizing these statistics is essential for monitoring the EU's economic health and ensuring financial stability across the single market.

This will primarily affect national statistical offices and government agencies. It ensures that economic data is consistent and comparable across all member states, providing a clearer picture of international trade and investment flows.
