  • Notes

    The latest figures must in all cases be regarded as provisional; subsequent revisions which appear in the following

    issue of this Special Statistical Publication are therefore not specially marked.

    Annual production value at credit institutions

    Credit institutions’ annual production value is recorded and shown under annual turnover in billions of euro. The

    annual production value consists of the net interest received, current income from shares and other variable-rate

    securities, commissions, the net result of financial operations and other operating income.

    Claims and liabilities arising from foreign direct investment relations

    In a departure from their definition in accounting terminology, the terms “claims” and “liabilities” arising from

    foreign direct investment relations also include cross-border equity holdings, which, legally speaking, do not

    constitute claims or liabilities but rather assets abroad held by residents or assets in Germany held by non-

    residents.

    Activities of holding companies with and without management activities

    As of the 2014 reporting year, the activities of those holding companies without management activities are no

    longer recorded under the economic activity group “Activities of head offices (Activities of holding companies)”

    but have been reclassified from Section M “Professional, scientific and technical activities” to Section K “Finan-

    cial and insurance activities” because they serve as companies’ internal group financiers.

    Discrepancies in the totals are due to rounding.

    Deutsche Bundesbank

    Foreign direct investment stock statistics

    April 2019

    25

  • The Foreign direct investment stock statistics are based on

    reports by domestic enterprises and individuals on “Resi-

    dents’ assets abroad” and “Non-residents’ assets in Ger-

    many”, which have to be submitted to the Deutsche Bun-

    desbank once a year. The contents of the reports and the

    procedures to be used are defined in the Foreign Trade

    and Payments Regulation (sections 64 and 65). The provi-

    sions also include the report forms annexed to the Foreign

    Trade and Payments Regulation and which form an inte-

    gral part of that Regulation.

    According to international standards, foreign direct invest-

    ment is defined as cross-border participation in the capital

    or voting rights of an enterprise of 10% or more. Owing

    to a national reporting threshold, reports must only be

    submitted for foreign direct investment enterprises with a

    balance sheet total of more than (the equivalent of) €3

    million. Secondary participating interests must be reported

    if they are majority-owned. When calculating foreign

    direct investment stock, loans between financial inter-

    mediaries (banks and other financial intermediaries) are

    not classified as foreign direct investment.

    I Reporting requirements and contents of the reports

    1 German foreign direct investment abroad (Outward foreign direct investment)

    Reports are required to be submitted by German enter-

    prises and individuals which, on the reporting date, have

    direct (primary) holdings of 10% or more, or direct and

    indirect (secondary) holdings totalling more than 50% of

    the capital shares or voting rights in an enterprise abroad

    which has a balance sheet total of more than (the equiva-

    lent of) €3 million. Reports are also required of German

    enterprises that maintain branch offices or permanent

    establishments abroad with operating assets in excess of

    €3 million.

    The reports must include the following information:

    (a) on the party required to report: name, domicile, eco-

    nomic sector, legal form, balance sheet total, annual

    turnover (in the case of banks: annual production

    value) and the number of employees;

    (b) on each individual foreign enterprise in which a direct

    or indirect participating interest of the kind that is to be

    reported is held:

    – company name, domicile, country of domicile, legal

    status, economic sector, annual turnover (in the case

    of banks: annual production value) and the number

    of employees;

    – the reason for reporting if the participating interest is

    reported for the first time: a newly established enter-

    prise, purchase, merger or acquisition, or overshoot-

    ing of the reporting threshold;

    – the balance sheet of the foreign enterprise in which

    the party required to report has a primary or second-

    ary participating interest as at the reporting date, as

    well as the shares in the asset and liability positions

    given in that balance sheet which are attributable

    either directly to the party required to report or to

    affiliated enterprises and, in the case of secondary

    participating interests, the shares in the asset and

    liability positions given in that balance sheet which

    are attributable to the foreign enterprise with a pri-

    mary participating interest. What must be reported is

    the foreign currency balance sheet of the foreign

    enterprise, which has been drawn up in accordance

    with the regulations in force in the country of domi-

    cile. In the case of primary participating interests in a

    listed enterprise, the stock market value of the shares

    held is also reported.

    2 Foreign direct investment in Germany (Inward foreign direct investment)

    Reports are required to be submitted by every German

    enterprise with a balance sheet total of more than €3 mil-

    lion in which a non-resident (or several economically

    linked non-residents together) holds 10% or more of the

    shares or voting rights in the German enterprise on the

    balance sheet date. Reports are also required of non-

    residents’ branch offices or permanent establishments in

    Germany with operating assets in excess of €3 million.

    Secondary participating interests are to be reported if

    non-residents have a holding of more than 50% in a

    domestic enterprise – such enterprises are deemed to be

    “dependent enterprises” – and if these dependent enter-

    prises themselves have primary or secondary holdings

    totalling more than 50% of the shares or voting rights in

    other domestic enterprises.

    ity positions which are directly attributable to the

    enterprise with a primary participating interest and

    credit relations with other affiliated enterprises (and,

    where applicable, the claims and liabilities of the

    domestic enterprise which exist directly vis-à-vis a

    non-resident shareholder of the enterprise required

    to report), in the event of the enterprise required to

    report having a secondary participating interest, the

    shares in the asset and liability positions of this bal-

    ance sheet which are attributable to the domestic

    enterprise holding the primary participating interest.

    II Calculation of the stock of foreign direct investment

    A distinction is made in the presentation of the statistics

    between primary foreign direct investment and consoli-

    dated primary and secondary foreign direct investment.

    Primary foreign direct investment constitutes the primary

    capital links arising from residents’ participating interests

    in enterprises abroad or non-residents’ participating inter-

    ests in enterprises in Germany.

    Pursuant to the internationally agreed “extended direc-

    tional principle” (OECD Benchmark Definition of Foreign

    Direct Investment), lending between sister companies is

    classified according to the country of domicile of the

    group headquarters. Cross-border credit relations with

    sister companies are counted as outward foreign direct

    investment, irrespective of the underlying direction of the

    foreign direct investment relation, if the group headquar-

    ters are domiciled in Germany. In this instance, outward

    foreign direct investment is increased when an enterprise

    in Germany lends to a sister company domiciled abroad

    and reduced in the case of borrowing on the part of a

    sister company domiciled abroad. If the group headquar-

    ters are domiciled abroad, cross-border lending between

    sister companies is recorded as inward foreign direct

    investment. Inward foreign direct investment is increased

    when an enterprise domiciled abroad lends to a sister

    company in Germany and reduced in the case of cross-

    border borrowing on the part of a sister company in

    Germany.

    A breakdown of primary foreign direct investment stock is

    derived from the following components of the statistical

    reports:

    1 the shares in the nominal capital held primarily by

    shareholders (shares in subscribed or called-up capital,

    or in endowment capital), plus pro rata reserves and

    profits less pro rata losses. These shares are deter-

    mined on the basis of the respective pro rata shares of

    the individual primary shareholders in the nominal

    capital. The amounts involved must be stated in the

    reports. Foreign direct investment enterprises’ partici-

    pation in investor capital is to be deducted from this if

    it does not constitute a foreign direct investment rela-

    tion (participation of less than 10% in investor capital).

    These components yield the primary investment capital.

  • In addition, the primary foreign direct investment capital

    includes:

    2 direct lending by primary or secondary shareholders in

    Germany or abroad;

    plus

    3 direct lending by other affiliated enterprises, namely,

    – in the case of outward foreign direct investment,

    lending by sister companies in Germany if the group

    headquarters are domiciled in Germany, and,

    – in the case of inward foreign direct investment, lend-

    ing by sister companies abroad if the group head-

    quarters are domiciled abroad.

    The sum of components 1 to 3 is referred to as “claims

    arising from primary German foreign direct investment re-

    lations” in the case of outward foreign direct investment

    and “liabilities arising from primary German foreign direct

    investment relations” in the case of inward foreign direct

    investment.

    These claims (outward foreign direct investment) and

    liabilities (inward foreign direct investment) are decreased

    by the following components (“reverse investments”):

    4 direct lending by foreign direct investment enterprises

    to their primary or secondary shareholders in Germany

    or abroad;

    and

    5 direct lending by other affiliated enterprises, namely,

    – in the case of outward foreign direct investment,

    lending by sister companies abroad if the group

    headquarters are domiciled in Germany, and,

    – in the case of inward foreign direct investment, lend-

    ing by sister companies in Germany if the group

    headquarters are domiciled abroad.

    Primary outward foreign direct investment is derived from

    claims arising from primary German foreign direct invest-

    ment relations (components 1 to 3) less liabilities arising

    from primary German foreign direct investment relations

    (components 4 and 5). Correspondingly, primary inward

    foreign direct investment is derived from liabilities arising

    from primary foreign direct investment relations abroad

    (components 1 to 3) less claims arising from primary for-

    eign direct investment relations abroad (components 4

    and 5).

    In order to provide as comprehensive a picture as possible

    of the pattern of foreign direct investment and its devel-

    opment, primary and secondary foreign direct investment

    held via direct holding companies is also shown in these

    statistics in a consolidated form. Such consolidation is

    effected by deducting primary foreign direct investment in

    dependent holding companies from the aggregate pri-

    mary and secondary foreign direct investment. Primary

    foreign direct investment in dependent holding companies

    is thus exchanged for the investment made by these de-

    pendent holding companies in further primary participat-

    ing interests. This prevents double counting of the capital

    which was invested in holding companies and was used

    by them to finance their participating interests.

    The secondary direct foreign investment that is included in

    the consolidated statistics comprises:

    – in the case of outward foreign direct investment, sec-

    ondary capital links arising from residents’ participating

    interests in foreign enterprises via dependent holding

    companies domiciled abroad, and,

    – in the case of inward foreign direct investment, sec-

    ondary capital links arising from non-residents’ partici-

    pating interests in German enterprises via dependent

    holding companies domiciled in Germany.

    The way in which secondary foreign direct investment is

    calculated from the balance sheet items is the same as

    that used to calculate primary foreign direct investment,

    with the dependent holding company taking the place of

    the primary shareholder.

    III Foreign direct investment stocks at market values including real estate and construction

    Unlike the calculation of the stock of foreign direct invest-

    ment described in section II, here the shareholdings in

    listed direct investment companies are evaluated using the

    stock market value and not the book value from the bal-

    ance sheets of the direct investment companies. In line

    with an international agreement, cross-border private real

    estate as well as construction sites that have existed for

    more than one year are supplemented by cumulated data

    on the balance of payments statistics.
