International investment position accounts (IIPs)

Part of BEA’s international economic accounts, the IIP accounts summarize the value of accumulated stocks of U.S.-owned assets abroad and of foreign-owned assets in the United States. The difference between the assets and liabilities is the net IIP of the United States. Separate statistics are available for the value of accumulated stocks of official assets, of U.S. government assets other than official reserve assets, of direct, portfolio, and other investment, and of financial derivatives.
