Impact of Globalization on measuring economic growth -
Presentation outline
• Why does it have such an impact?
• Where does it have an impact on economic data?
• What can be done?
Why does Globalisation
have such an impact?
Globalisation and Fragmentation of Production

Recording changes in economic ownership of goods and capital


assets in particular
Both intangible and tangible capital assets
Fundamental question - Who owns what?
Basis for economic statistical compilation
Why does fragmentation occur ?
Features of Globalised Production
• Contract Manufacturing - Factoryless production
• Importance of Intangible assets – Intellectual Property in
production
• Location of intellectual property and changes in location
Changes in Accounting Standards and Regulatory
Oversight
• R&D assets only recognised as capital formation in SNA 2008
• Coincided with OECD led developments in transfer pricing -
BEPS etc.
• Reduce the incidence of moving profits across jurisdictions to
minimise taxes
• Alignment of local legislation with BEPS recommendations
BEPS Recommendations
• Companies encouraged to locate an IP asset where the value
added arising from it is occurring
• Against holding these assets in SPE type structures in tax
friendly jurisdictions

Reporting economic data in
globalised economies -

Changes to presentation of Economic data
• Level indicator of economy – excl. globalisation GNI*
• Structural indicator - Domestic and Foreign
• Cyclical indicator - developments in underlying economy
• Use SNA framework - more emphasis on Net measures
• Not just GDP, Institutional Sector Accounts, Productivity
Accounts , Extended SUTs etc.

In conclusion

• Globalisation driven by fragmentation

• Mobile intangible assets - Intellectual Property Products large impacts on economic


accounts

• For increasingly complex economies - a single indicator can no longer tell the full story

• Work needed to provide insight on the domestic story – including work in domain of
business statistics – Structural, Level and Cyclical indicators required.

• International Statistical Standards being updated to provide more insight
