New Foreign Direct Investment in the United States, 2018
Expenditures by foreign direct investors to acquire, establish, or expand U.S. businesses totaled $296.4
billion (preliminary) in 2018. Expenditures were up 8.7 percent from $272.8 billion (revised) in 2017
but were below the annual average of $338.1 billion for 2014–2017. As in previous years, acquisitions of
existing businesses accounted for a large majority of total expenditures.

U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis

In 2018, expenditures for acquisitions were $287.3 billion, expenditures to establish new U.S. businesses
were $5.3 billion, and expenditures to expand existing foreign‐owned businesses were $3.8 billion.
Planned total expenditures, which include both first‐year and planned future expenditures, were $318.1
billion.
Expenditures by industry, country, and state in 2018
By industry, expenditures for new direct investment were mainly concentrated in manufacturing, which
accounted for 67.4 percent of total expenditures, or $199.7 billion. Within manufacturing, expenditures
were largest in chemical manufacturing ($142.3 billion). There were also notable expenditures in real
estate, rental, and leasing ($22.1 billion) and information ($16.3 billion).
By country of ultimate beneficial owner (UBO), Germany and Ireland had the largest expenditures, but
their values are suppressed due to confidentiality requirements. Canada ($32.5 billion) was the third
largest investing country. By region, Europe contributed nearly three‐quarters of new investment in
2018.
By U.S. state, Missouri received the largest investment, but its value is suppressed due to confidentiality
requirements. New York ($63.0 billion), Texas ($31.1 billion), and California ($27.3 billion) also received
significant investment.
Greenfield expenditures
Greenfield investment expenditures—expenditures to either establish a new U.S. business or to expand
an existing foreign‐owned U.S. business—were $9.1 billion in 2018. Total planned expenditures until
completion for greenfield investment initiated in 2018, which include both first‐year and future
expenditures, were $30.8 billion.
By U.S. industry, greenfield expenditures in 2018 were largest in manufacturing ($2.6 billion) and real
estate, rental, and leasing ($2.6 billion). By country of UBO, Canada ($2.4 billion) and Japan ($1.2 billion)
had the largest expenditures. By U.S. state, Texas received the highest level of greenfield investment
($2.0 billion), followed by New York ($1.6 billion).
Employment by newly acquired, established, or expanded foreign‐owned businesses
In 2018, employment at newly acquired, established, or expanded foreign‐owned businesses in the
United States was 430,600 employees. Current employment of acquired enterprises was 426,400. Total
planned employment, which includes the current employment of acquired enterprises, the planned
employment of newly established business enterprises when fully operational, and the planned
employment associated with expansions, was 469,800.
By industry, manufacturing accounted for the largest number of employees (209,000), followed by retail
trade (62,500). By country of UBO, Canada accounted for the largest number of employees (84,300),
followed by the United Kingdom (68,900), and Ireland (68,300).

–2–

By U.S. state, California had the largest employment (102,000), followed by New York (55,300) and
Texas (45,500). Employment for an acquired entity that operated in multiple states is attributed to the
state in which it had the greatest number of employees.

Additional Information
An acquisition occurs when a foreign entity acquires a
voting interest (directly, or indirectly through an existing
U.S. affiliate) of at least 10 percent in a U.S. enterprise.
Acquisitions of additional voting interest in existing U.S.
affiliates in which a foreign entity already has a 10 percent
voting interest are excluded.

statistics see: New Foreign Direct
Investment in the United States in 2017,
Survey of Current Business 98 (August
2018).
Additional information on new foreign
direct investment in the United States in
2018 will be published next month in BEA’s
monthly online journal, the Survey of
Current Business.
More information on foreign direct
investment statistics is provided in U.S.
International Economic Accounts: Concepts
and Methods.

An establishment occurs when a foreign entity, or an
existing U.S. affiliate of a foreign entity, establishes a new
legal entity in the United States in which the foreign entity
owns 10 percent or more of the new business enterprise’s
voting interest.
An expansion occurs when an existing U.S. affiliate of a
foreign parent expands its operations to include a new
facility where business is conducted.
Greenfield investment includes establishments and
expansions.

Statistical Conventions
The statistics of new investments by foreign direct
investors are based on data reported in the Survey of New
Foreign Direct Investment in the United States (BE‐13)
conducted by BEA.
The statistics include transactions resulting from
corporate inversions. A corporate inversion occurs when
a U.S. corporation that is currently the ultimate owner of
its worldwide operations takes steps to become a
subsidiary of a foreign corporation. BEA’s direct
investment surveys do not collect information on
whether a U.S. corporation became foreign owned as a
result of a corporate inversion. Using publicly available
information, such as commercial databases and press
reports, BEA estimates that newly inverted U.S.
corporations accounted for a significant share of first‐
year expenditures in 2015, but not in subsequent years.
For more information on how corporate inversions affect
the new investment statistics see “New Foreign Direct
investment in the United States in 2016” in the Survey.

Definitions
Direct investment is a category of cross‐border investment
associated with a resident in one economy having control
or a significant degree of influence on the management of
an enterprise resident in another economy. Ownership or
control of 10 percent or more of the voting securities of an
entity in another economy is the threshold for separating
direct investment from other types of investment.
A U.S. affiliate is a U.S. business enterprise that is at least
10 percent owned by a single foreign person or entity.
A foreign parent is the first person or entity outside the
United States in a U.S. affiliate’s ownership chain that has
a direct investment interest in the affiliate.

Related Statistics
Statistics on new foreign direct investment are one part of
a broader set of U.S. international economic accounts that,
taken together, provide a comprehensive, integrated and
detailed picture of U.S. international economic activities.

The ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) is that person or
entity, proceeding up a U.S. affiliate’s ownership chain
that is not owned more than 50 percent by another person
or entity.

Statistics on direct investment and multinational
enterprises (MNEs) include annual statistics on the

countries.

activities of U.S. MNEs and U.S. affiliates of foreign MNEs
as well as detailed annual and quarterly statistics on direct
investment.

Statistics on international services, released annually,
include detailed annual information on trade in services
and on services supplied through the channel of direct
investment by affiliates of MNEs.

The international investment position (IIP) accounts are
released quarterly. The IIP is a statistical balance sheet
that presents the dollar value of U.S. financial assets and
