A growing number of analysts are working to develop alternative statistics on global capital flows and portfolio investment in order to better understand cross-border financial linkages and investor exposures. For example, a firm may be incorporated in a financial center, but may have little economic connection to that location. Likewise, a firm may issue securities via a financing subsidiary located in an offshore financial center. In these cases, knowing the country of residence (the financial center) may say little about the actual economic exposures investors face. The Federal Reserve Board staff paper (called a FEDS Note) discusses the advantages of the nationality-based data and presents the U.S. portfolio claims data, shown on a residence basis in the annual TIC SHC reports (line 1), on a nationality basis.
- (6-14-2017). The files in the zip file contain data on the sectorial breakdown of U.S. private sector holdings of foreign securities; these are private U.S. resident claims on the foreign resident issuers of those securities. The data are by type of security, and show four subsectors of U.S. holders (deposit-taking corporations including banks; insurance and pension funds; other financial corporations; and nonfinancial corporations) and four subsectors of foreign issuers (deposit-taking corporations; all other financial corporations; general government; and nonfinancial corporations (NFCs)).
