(12) The existing good operative cooperation between the National Central Banks (NCBs) and the National Statistical Institutes (NSIs) and between Eurostat and the European Central Bank is an asset that should be continued and further developed in the light of improving the overall harmonisation and quality of balance of payments statistics, financial statistics, government finance statistics, macro- economic statistics and national accounts. The NSIs and NCBs would continue to be closely involved in the preparation of all the decisions related to BOP, ITS and FDI via their participation in the relevant Commission expert group responsible for BOP, ITS and FDI. The strategic cooperation between the ESS and ESCB is coordinated in the European Statistical Forum, established via a Memorandum of Understanding on the cooperation between the members of the European Statistical System and the members of the European System of Central Banks10 signed on 24 April 2013. __________________ 10 http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/cache/ITY _PUBLIC/MOU_ESS_ESCB/EN/MOU_E SS_ESCB-EN.PDF

(13a) Information on FDI gross capital flows compiled according to the ultimate beneficiary ownership concept would increase the analytical value of the Union FDI statistics and may also contribute to transparency and traceability of financial flows associated to direct investment operations. Likewise, FDI statistics distinguishing greenfield FDI from FDI resulting in takeovers would be useful in analysing the effects of FDI on gross capital formation. The development of an adequate conceptual framework on both the ultimate beneficiary ownership and the distinction between greenfield FDI and takeovers requires international cooperation involving other international organisations and ideally the Group of Twenty (G20) Data Gaps Initiative.
