Foreign residents' holdings of, and net purchases of, U.S. securities: long-term Treasuries, agency bonds, corporate bonds and equities, plus short-term Treasuries (bills). Foreign official holders (central banks and governments) and non-official holders are separate options in the dropdown.

Data come from the Treasury International Capital (TIC) reporting system, securities form SLT, as compiled in Treasury's monthly securities file. The series combine SLT survey data with staff estimates of the Federal Reserve Board for periods before the survey. Click a name in the legend to show or hide it; the tooltip totals what is shown.

Holdings are at market value at month end. Net purchases are purchases less sales at transaction value in the month. Valuation change is the change in the value of holdings from price and exchange rate moves. Holdings change by net purchases plus valuation change plus other adjustments. The 12-month view sums the latest twelve monthly figures.

A country is where the foreign holder or its custodian is located, so financial centers such as the United Kingdom, the Cayman Islands, Luxembourg, Ireland, Belgium and Switzerland appear larger than their own residents' savings. 'Other (not itemized)' is the published long-term total less the assets Treasury itemizes, which matters only for some small countries.

History begins in December 1984. Countries and groups whose series ended (for example the countries that Treasury stopped reporting separately after January 2023) are listed under 'Former reporters'.
