The present invention discloses a method for performing a CoMP operation in a wireless communication system and an apparatus for the method. A method for performing an Inter-eNB CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) operation in a wireless communication system comprises receiving, by a first eNB, a message requesting initiation of a CoMP operation from a second eNB; transmitting, by the first eNB, to the second eNB a message requesting information about gain expected from a CoMP operation carried out in the second eNB; receiving, by the first eNB, the information about gain expected from the second eNB; coordinating, by the first eNB, resources for a CoMP operation based on the information of expected gain; and transmitting, by the first eNB, the resource coordination result to the second eNB.
