Every five years, the US Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) conducts a survey concerning financial services transactions between US "Financial Services Providers" (defined below) and entities domiciled or incorporated outside the United States ("Foreign Persons"). Each US entity that (1) is a Financial Services Provider; and (2) either was contacted by the BEA or had combined sales to or purchases from Foreign Persons in excess of $3 million during its 2014 fiscal year is required to file a report ("US Reporter") using the Form BE-180.
