  1. Technology exports an imports of Japanese enterprises and the impact of the financial crisis Presentation to the 2nd Meeting of the Working Party on International Trade in Goods and Trade in Services Statistics (WPTGS) 16-18 November 2009 ToshieKori International Department, Bank of Japan

  2. Features of Technology trade in Japan • Surplus of “royalties and license fees” has been increasing reflecting increasing surplus in “royalties.” • In contrast with “royalties,” “license fees” are consistently deficit reflecting payments of fees for computer software. Figure 1: Royalties and License Fees

  3. Features of Technology trade in JapanPayment & Receipts of Royalties by industry • Major part of surplus in “royalties” are those related to transport equipment, which account for more than 90 percent of the surplus. Figure 2: Payments and Receipts of Royalties by Industry

  4. Features of Technology trade in Japan • The large receipts of motor vehicle-related royalties due to the industry's high overseas production ratio. • The expansion of overseas production by Japanese motor vehicle companies is the major contributor to the increase in the overall surplus. Table 1: Overseas Production Ratios (By Industry)

  5. Features of Technology trade in Japan • One of the features of motor vehicle-related receipts of royalties is that intra-firm transactions (between parent companies and their subsidiaries) account for a major portion. Table 2: Technology Exports and Imports (By Industry)

  6. Features of Technology trade in Japan • Receipt of “royalties” by industries closely linked with Japanese enterprises’ direct investment. Figure 3: Direct Investment Assets by Region at Year-End

  7. Features of Technology trade in Japan Features of Receipt of “Royalties" by Region • Increasing receipt of “royalties” from BRICs countries reflecting increasing investment to those countries. Figure 4: The Regional Composition of Royalties 2004 2008
