## Abstract

This final rule amends the Bureau of Economic Analysis' (BEA) regulations to set forth the reporting requirements for a new mandatory Benchmark Survey of Insurance Transactions by U.S. Insurance Companies with Foreign Persons. The survey will collect data on cross-border reinsurance and other insurance transactions from U.S. insurance companies. The BE-140 survey will be conducted every five years with the first survey covering calendar year 2008. The BE-140 survey data will be used by BEA to estimate the insurance services component of the U.S. International Transactions Accounts (ITAs) and other economic accounts compiled by BEA.
