Foreword
Foreword
‘Globalisation
patterns in EU trade and investment’
focuses on one of the most important issues
connected to globalisation, the growing trade
and financial flows between the European Union
and the rest of the world.
This publication presents a broad range
of statistics on the balance of payments,
international trade and business in a globalised
world. It highlights recent patterns in trade,
investment and also in industrial organisation.
The first part is devoted to the role played by the
European Union in global trade and investment as
compared to other trade partners.
In part two, the publication focuses on the international trade in goods and services, foreign
direct investment, and the structure and conduct of foreign affiliates within the EU.
A balanced and progressive trade policy aiming to harness globalisation is high on the priorities
list of the European Commission led by President Jean-Claude Juncker.
This Eurostat publication aims to present EU citizens, policymakers and businesses with more
information about globalised trade and investment.
I hope that you will find it useful for making better and more informed decisions and I wish you
an enjoyable reading experience,
Mariana Kotzeva
