The Foreign Assets and Liabilities Survey (FALS) is an annual survey of foreign assets and liabilities of enterprises incorporated in Mauritius that is used as an input in the compilation of external sector statistics by the Bank. The survey collects information on private financial flows, stocks and related income variables from a sample of Mauritian enterprises that are known to have foreign assets and liabilities. The first FALS, launched in 2007, was treated as an exploratory survey, and to date, seven FALS have been carried out by the Bank.
