Abstract

Reasons for developing countries' concern with intrafirm trade are summarized. Existing sources of data are evaluated, and conceptual and definitional problems addressed. Existing data are employed to establish trends in developing countries' intrafirm trade; U.S. non-petroleum imports from majority-owned foreign affiliates in developing countries are a declining share of total U.S. such imports. Recommendations for further data collection and empirical research are offered.
