Public: $0. 

Needs and Uses: The Office of

information to mitigate variances in 

foreign access management program 

implementation and registration 

information requirements needed to 

reach risk-based determinations of 

physical and logical access by foreign 

national visitors and guests to 

Commerce facilities and resources. The 

information collected will be used for 

risk-based assessments of short-term 

access or as partial completion towards 

long term guest research agreements and 

supporting security and background 

investigations for potential personal 

identity credential issuance in 

compliance with U.S. laws and 

regulations governing physical and 

logical access to federal facilities and 

information resources. Due to the 

increasing diversity of foreign national 

participation in departmental programs, 

considerable efforts have been made to 

baseline requirements as a means to 

define uniform program standards as 

well as to expand current guidance 

beyond foreign visitor control to manage 

emerging risks associated with physical 

and logical access to the Department’ s 

facilities and resources.

households.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Quarterly Survey of U.S. Direct 

Investment Abroad—Transactions of 

U.S. Reporter with Foreign Affiliate 

(Form BE–577) obtains quarterly data on 

transactions and positions between 

U.S.-owned foreign business enterprises 

and their U.S. parents, except certain 

private funds. The survey is a sample 

survey that covers all foreign affiliates 

above a size-exemption level. The 

sample data are used to derive universe 

estimates in nonbenchmark years from 

similar data reported in the BE–10, 

Benchmark Survey of U.S. Direct 

Investment Abroad, which is conducted 

every five years. The data are essential 

for the preparation of the U.S. 

international transactions accounts, the 

national income and product accounts, 

the input-output accounts, and the 

international investment position of the 

United States. The data are needed to 

measure the size and economic 

significance of direct investment abroad, 

measure changes in such investment, 

and assess its impact on the U.S. and 

foreign economies. The Bureau of 

Economic Analysis (BEA) is not 

proposing any changes to the BE–577 

survey. 

II. Method of Collection 

Notice of specific reporting 

requirements, including who is to 

report, the information to be reported, 

the manner of reporting, and the time 

and place of filing reports, will be 

mailed to potential respondents each 

quarter. Reports are due 30 days after 

the close of each calendar or fiscal 

quarter—45 days if the report is for the 

final quarter of the respondent’s 

financial reporting year. Reports are 

required from each U.S. person that has 

a direct and/or indirect ownership 

interest of at least 10 percent of the 

voting stock in an incorporated foreign 

business enterprise, or an equivalent 

interest in an unincorporated foreign 

business enterprise, and that meets the 

additional conditions detailed in Form 

BE–577. Certain private funds are 

exempt from reporting. Entities required 

to report will be contacted individually 

by BEA. Entities not contacted by BEA 

have no reporting responsibilities. 

Potential respondents are those U.S. 

business enterprises that reported 

owning foreign business enterprises in 

the 2019 benchmark survey of U.S. 

direct investment abroad, along with 

entities that subsequently entered the 

direct investment universe. The data 

collected are sample data. Universe 

estimates are developed from the 

reported sample data. 

BEA offers electronic filing through 

its eFile system (www.bea.gov/efile) for 

use in reporting on the BE–577 survey 

forms. In addition, BEA posts its survey 

forms and reporting instructions on its 

website (www.bea.gov/dia).
