Abstract: The rapid development of a globalized world has dramatically increased the number, complexity and variety of possible intra-group operations. More and more frequently, companies are involved in corporate inversions or decide to move their domicile to other countries in order to benefit from more favourable tax and administrative conditions. These operations imply significant problems in compiling external statistics, particularly in terms of foreign direct investment flows and stocks but also other balance of payments items. The purpose of this paper is to highlight these challenges through the analysis of some real cases observed in Italy.
