U.S. International Investment Position,
1st Quarter 2024 and Annual Update
First Quarter
The U.S. net international investment position, the difference between U.S. residents’ foreign financial assets
and liabilities, was –$21.28 trillion at the end of the first quarter of 2024, according to statistics released
today by BEA (chart 1). Assets totaled $35.78 trillion, and liabilities were $57.06 trillion (chart 2). At the end
of the fourth quarter of 2023, the net investment position was –$19.85 trillion (revised). The net investment
position and components of assets and liabilities are presented in table 1.
The –$1.43 trillion change in the net investment position from the fourth quarter of 2023 to the first quarter
of 2024 came from net financial transactions of –$179.1 billion and net other changes in position, such as
price and exchange-rate changes, of –$1.25 trillion (table 2).
Exchange-rate changes of –$592.1 billion reflected the depreciation of major foreign currencies against the
U.S. dollar, which lowered the value of U.S. assets more than U.S. liabilities in dollar terms.
Price changes of –$565.5 billion reflected U.S. stock price increases that exceeded foreign stock price
increases, which raised the market value of U.S. liabilities more than U.S. assets.

New Statistics
In this release, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) introduces new quarterly detail for “other
changes in position” in U.S. assets and liabilities such as price, exchange-rate, and other changes in
volume and valuation, for statistics beginning with the first quarter of 2023. Previously, this information
was only available annually. These new statistics provide a more comprehensive and timely
understanding of the United States’ financial interconnectedness with the rest of the world. The new
quarterly detail will be published in this news release series every March, June, September, and
December in table 2, which replaces table A included in previous news releases. The statistics are also
available via BEA’s Interactive Data Application and Data Application Programming Interface in “Table 1.3.
Change in the U.S. Net International Investment Position.”

U.S. assets increased by $1.38 trillion to a total of $35.78 trillion at the end of the first quarter, driven mainly
by foreign stock price increases that raised the market value of direct investment and portfolio investment
assets (chart 3). The impact of stock price increases was partly offset by the depreciation of major foreign
currencies against the U.S. dollar that lowered the value of foreign-currency-denominated assets in dollar
terms.
Direct investment assets increased by $713.0 billion to $11.32 trillion and portfolio investment assets
increased by $664.6 billion to $16.00 trillion, driven mainly by foreign stock price increases that raised the
market value of these assets by $779.9 billion and $875.3 billion, respectively (table 2).

Page 2 of 8

U.S. liabilities increased by $2.81 trillion to a total of $57.06 trillion at the end of the first quarter, driven by
U.S. stock price increases that raised the market value of portfolio investment and direct investment
liabilities (chart 4).
Portfolio investment liabilities increased by $1.58 trillion to $30.19 trillion and direct investment liabilities
increased by $1.27 trillion to $16.08 trillion, driven mainly by U.S. stock price increases that raised the market
value of these liabilities by $1.14 trillion and $1.20 trillion, respectively (table 2).

Annual Update of the U.S. International Investment Position Accounts
The statistics in this release reflect the annual update of the U.S. International Investment Position Accounts.
With this update, BEA has incorporated newly available and revised source data for 2021–2023 (table 3).
In addition, BEA has incorporated a new methodology for estimating positions in other equity assets (a
component of other investment assets), beginning with 2021. Revised positions reflect an initial yearend
2020 position brought forward by accumulating transactions (unrevised) and new estimates of exchange-rate
changes for the foreign-currency-denominated equity positions of the U.S. government in the European Bank
for Reconstruction and Development, the African Development Bank, and the African Development Fund.

Position Accounts and a description of the

Concepts and Methods.

Definitions
The international investment position (IIP) is a statistical
balance sheet that presents the dollar value of U.S. financial
assets and liabilities with respect to foreign residents at a
specific point in time. BEA presents IIP statistics at the end
of a quarter or year (March, June, September, and
December). Beginning with statistics for the first quarter of
2023 released in June 2024, BEA also presents changes in
end-of-quarter positions disaggregated into financial
transactions, price changes, exchange-rate changes, and
changes in volume and valuation not included elsewhere
(n.i.e.). Statistics for changes in yearend positions
disaggregated into these components are also available.
The U.S. net IIP is defined as the value of U.S. assets less the
value of U.S. liabilities.
Financial transactions are transactions between U.S.
residents and nonresidents in financial assets and liabilities.
They are also recorded in the financial account of the
International Transactions Accounts (ITAs). See “Related
statistics” below.
Other changes in position are changes in the value of U.S.
assets or liabilities arising from any source besides a
financial transaction. Other changes in position include price
changes, exchange-rate changes, and changes in volume
and valuation n.i.e.
Price changes are changes in the value of an asset or liability
due to changes in the market price of a financial instrument.

Exchange-rate changes are changes in the value of foreigncurrency-denominated assets and liabilities due to changes
in the values of foreign currencies relative to the value of the
U.S. dollar.
Changes in volume and valuation n.i.e. reflect changes in
position due to shifts in the composition of reporting panels,
the incorporation of more comprehensive annual and
benchmark survey results, and revaluations (holding gains
and losses) on assets and liabilities that are not explained by
price changes or exchange-rate changes.
Functional categories are the primary classification system
used in the IIP Accounts and in the financial account of the
ITAs. The five functional categories are direct investment,
portfolio investment, financial derivatives other than
reserves, other investment, and reserve assets. While the
functional categories are based on features that are relevant
for understanding cross-border financial transactions and
positions, they also take into account some aspects of the
relationship between transactors and the economic
motivation for the investment. Within the functional
categories, the IIP Accounts are classified by type of financial
instrument.
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. Direct
investment positions include positions in equity and debt
instruments. BEA’s IIP statistics feature the market value
measure of direct investment positions, a measure that
values owners’ equity at current-period prices using indexes
of stock market prices.
Portfolio investment consists of cross-border positions
involving equity and investment fund shares and debt
securities, excluding those included in direct investment or
reserve assets. Debt securities are classified by original
maturity (short term versus long term at the time of issue).
Financial derivatives other than reserves consist of crossborder positions arising from financial contracts that are
linked to underlying financial instruments, commodities, or
indicators. Positions in financial derivatives consist of
contracts with positive and negative fair values. A contract
with a positive fair value is a U.S. asset and represents the
amount that a foreign resident would have to pay to a U.S.
counterparty if the contract were terminated or settled. A

Page 4 of 8

contract with a negative fair value is a U.S. liability and
represents the amount that a U.S. resident would have to
pay to a foreign counterparty if the contract were
terminated or settled. The gross positive (negative) fair
value is the sum across all contracts with positive (negative)
fair values. Fair values differ from notional values, which are
the underlying amounts used to calculate payments on
contracts. Gross positive and gross negative fair values for
financial derivatives positions are available separately in
table 1. However, transactions and other changes in
financial derivatives positions are only available for the net
position in financial derivatives. For other changes in
position for financial derivatives, statistics are not
separately available for price changes, exchange rate
changes, and changes in volume and valuation n.i.e.

Release and update schedule

Other investment includes cross-border positions other
than those included in direct investment, portfolio
investment, financial derivatives, and reserve assets. Other
investment positions consist of positions in other equity
(equity not in the form of securities), currency and deposits,
loans, insurance technical reserves, trade credit and
advances, and, for liabilities, special drawing rights
allocations.

The IIP statistics comprise 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.

Reserve assets are those external assets that are readily
available to and controlled by U.S. monetary authorities for
meeting balance-of-payments financing needs, for
intervention in exchange markets to affect the currency
exchange rate, and for other related purposes such as
maintaining confidence in the currency and the economy
and serving as a basis for foreign borrowing. The major
published components are monetary gold, International
Monetary Fund (IMF) special drawing rights, reserve
position in the IMF, and other reserve assets.

Preliminary quarterly IIP statistics are released in March,
June, September, and December, approximately 90 days
after the end of the reference quarter. These statistics are
updated the following quarter to incorporate new and
revised source data. Quarterly statistics are open for
revision for at least the prior 3 years in annual updates
released in June. Preliminary annual statistics are released
in March reflecting positions at the end of the fourth quarter
of the previous year. These annual statistics are open for
revision for at least the prior 3 years in subsequent annual
updates.

Related statistics

The ITA statistics are released quarterly. Financial
transactions reported in the financial account of the ITAs are
one type of change in position recorded in the IIP. Financial
transactions are transactions between U.S. residents and
nonresidents for direct investment, portfolio investment,
other investment, reserve assets, and financial derivatives.
Statistics on direct investment and multinational enterprises
(MNEs) include annual statistics on the activities of U.S.
MNEs and U.S. affiliates of foreign MNEs, detailed annual
and quarterly statistics on direct investment, and annual
statistics on new foreign direct investment in the United
States.
Statistics on international services include detailed annual
information on trade in services and on services supplied
through the channel of direct investment by affiliates of
MNEs.
"U.S. International Trade in Goods and Services," released
by BEA and the U.S. Census Bureau, provides monthly
statistics on trade in goods and services.
