We adopt the guidelines of the sixth edition as our basis for compiling balance of payments and international investment position statistics and for reporting this information to the IMF.
The Manual on Statistics of International Trade in Services (MSITS) 2010 addresses the needs of a variety of producers and users of such statistics. While it is primarily a guide for statistical compilers, it is also a useful tool for governments and international organizations that use statistical information in connection with international negotiations on trade in services.
