U.S. residents' holdings of, and net purchases of, foreign long-term securities: government bonds, corporate bonds and equities. Short-term foreign securities are not included. The 'By U.S. holder' options split U.S. holdings by the type of U.S. investor.

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 March 1994. Foreign government and corporate bonds are published separately only from January 2012; before that a single bond series is shown, and the 12-month sums of the two bond segments begin in December 2012 (the total line is continuous).
