Abstract

The technology balance of payments represents a statistical overview of international market transactions between residents and non-residents, resulting from technology transfers realised through intangible assets (patents, licenses, knowhow, etc.) and the provision of services with a dominant technological component (research and development, technical assistance, engineering services, etc.). It is based on balance of payments and international trade in services statistics, in accordance with the international statistical standards. In this paper, the authors developed and examined the technology balance of payments of the Republic of Serbia, in order to determine the basic trends of technology trade with foreign countries and observe the analytical value of the technology balance of payments as an indicator of international technology trade.
