1 Information on the ownership structure of international companies from the State Data Agency’s statistical survey of foreign direct investment was used to compile the statistics. FDI balances by the ultimate investing country are calculated by apportioning the ownership interest held by the foreign direct investor (non-resident) on the basis of the ultimate investor’s ownership interest transferred through affiliated enterprises.
