The U.S. cross-border securities portfolio is used as a case study to document the extent of distortions in traditional residence-based portfolio statistics. With cross-border holdings of $12 trillion in stocks and bonds as of end-2017, the United States in aggregate is the single largest cross-border investor. Authors exploit the underlying security-level data on U.S. cross-border portfolio holdings collected as part of the Treasury International Capital (TIC) system. Using security-level identifiers as well as modern text matching techniques, authors map these holdings, security by security, to the country of exposure for each firm as assigned by commercial products designed for international investors, thus converting these holdings to a nationality basis. For common stock equity holdings, authors rely primarily on the constituent information for Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) country-focused equity indexes, supplemented with information on the primary _location of operations for firms that are not included in the MSCI indexes. For bonds, authors also rely on information about the ultimate parent company obtained from Moody's Investors Service, and, for asset-backed securities, about the underlying assets to map holdings of corporate bonds to a nationality basis. Each data file contains the market value by country of US holdings of long-term securities that are considered foreign on a residence basis as published in the Treasury International Capital data, and their corresponding values on a nationality basis, for end-December of each year.

Abstract (en): After World War II, international capital flowed into slow-growing Latin America rather than fast-growing Asia. This is surprising as, everything else equal, fast growth should imply high capital returns. This paper develops a capital flow accounting framework to quantify the role of different factor market distortions in producing these patterns. Surprisingly, we find that distortions in labor markets, rather than domestic or international capital markets, account for the bulk of these flows. Labor market distortions that indirectly depress investment incentives by lowering equilibrium labor supply explain two-thirds of observed flows, while improvement in these distortions over time accounts for much of Asia's rapid growth.

The linkages between the US and China, the world’s two major agricultural powers, have brought great uncertainty to the global food markets. Inspired by these, this paper examines the extreme risk spillovers between US and Chinese agricultural futures markets during significant crises. We use a copula-conditional value at risk (CoVaR) model with Markov-switching regimes to capture the tail dependence in their pair markets. The study covers the period from January 2006 to December 2022 and identifies two distinct dependence regimes (stable and crisis periods). Moreover, we find significant and asymmetric upside/downside extreme risk spillovers between the US and Chinese markets, which are highly volatile in crises. Additionally, the impact of international capital flows (the financial channel) on risk spillovers is particularly pronounced during the global financial crisis. During the period of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine 2022 war, the impact of supply chain disruptions (the non-financial channel) is highlighted. Our findings provide a theoretical reference for monitoring the co-movements in agricultural futures markets and practical insights for managing investment portfolios and enhancing food market stability during crises.

In 2024, no country had a higher foreign direct investment (FDI) position in the United States than Japan, followed by the United Kingdom and Canada. At that time, Japan had over 754 billion U.S. dollars invested in the United States. What is FDI? FDI is an international investment, in this case when a foreign firm or individual invests in a business in the United States. The worldwide value of FDI flows is immense, which is a result of the increasing connectedness of world financial markets. In this statistic, we see countries that are connected to the U.S. for historic and geographic reasons, such as the UK and Canada respectively, investing large sums of money in U.S. enterprises. The countries which received the most FDI from the United States in 2024 were the UK, Netherlands, and Luxembourg. The effects of FDI Foreign direct investment, like any increase in capital, leads to a higher number of jobs. The economy of the target country grows, and the investing country generally earns a good rate of return. Critics of FDI worry that it opens companies to the influence of foreign individuals and firms.

In 2022, the volume of commercial real estate transactions reached *** billion U.S. dollars, up from *** billion U.S. dollars in 2020. One of the reasons for the surge was the pandemic and the release of pent-up demand as the economy reopened. A real estate transaction refers to the process of passing the rights in a property unit from the seller to the buyer in return for an agreed upon sum. Effect of 2007-2008 credit crisis The U.S. real estate market reached its peak in 2007, just before the 2007-2008 credit crisis when the property market collapsed. The value of commercial property returns dropped between 2007 and 2009. Since 2010, the market has steadily recovered, and the volume of transactions climbed until 2015, and has levelled out since then. Types of commercial real estate The change in overall transaction volume is most likely impacted by the type of commercial properties which are more attractive to investors in a particular period. For instance, the interest in multifamily housing investment opportunities went down in the same period that interest in hotel investment opportunities went up.

Description

This dataset and code repository support the macro-financial empirical study: Illiquidity Without Democracy, which analyzes the UBS Puerto Rico bond fund crisis through a critical macro-finance lens. By compiling liquidity and return data from the full Dow 30 alongside Puerto Rican financial equities, the project investigates how symbolic liquidity withdrawal operates as an instrument of financial subjugation in colonially governed markets.

The uploaded materials include:

• 35 Excel files containing firm-level trading data (Dow 30 and PR equities)

• A Python script (cmf_analysis.py) implementing Amihud illiquidity and Fama–MacBeth regressions

• A README.md file with detailed reproducibility instructions

Grounded in Bonizzi et al. (2022), this work contributes to the theory of financialized colonialism, where credit ratings, liquidity signals, and bond pricing are not merely technical indicators—but expressions of asymmetrical power. Our analysis empirically substantiates that liquidity constraints for Puerto Rican firms intensified during key institutional moments, revealing systemic exclusion embedded in neoliberal financial governance.

This study is grounded in Critical Macro-Finance (CMF), which we conceptualize as an extension of Jensen and Meckling’s Agency Theory. In its original formulation, Agency Theory views the firm as a nexus of contracts—a legal and economic structure shaped by negotiated relationships among stakeholders, each with divergent incentives. CMF builds on this foundation by embedding those contractual relationships within broader institutional and political-economic contexts.

Whereas traditional agency models emphasize micro-level incentive alignment, CMF expands the analytic frame to include systemic asymmetries in power, information, and legal infrastructure—especially in fragile or postcolonial states. From this perspective, contracts are not formed in a vacuum but are shaped by historical legal origins, regulatory capture, financial hierarchy, and global capital flows. Thus, CMF repositions the firm not only as a nexus of contracts but also as a node in a stratified macro-financial system where access to capital, enforceability of rights, and institutional trust are unequally distributed.

This theoretical orientation allows us to interrogate how formal governance structures conceal deeper distortions in financial inclusion, enforcement asymmetries, and systemic risk transmission, particularly in contexts where legal institutions fail to uphold equitable contracting environments.

This statistic shows the direct investment position of the United States in China from 2000 to 2023, on a historical-cost basis. In 2023, the U.S. investments made in China were valued at 126.91 billion U.S. dollars. Direct investment position of the United States - additional information Foreign direct investment (FDI), simply put, is an investment of one company into another company located in a different country. It differs from a traditional way of investing into shares of foreign companies listed on a stock exchange. The companies which make foreign direct investment usually own a part of the company in which they invest and they have influence on the decision making process. In the United States, FDI is defined as an American investor (called the U.S. parent) owning a minimum of 10 percent of a foreign firm (known as a foreign affiliate). The total direct position of the United States abroad amounted to 6.68 trillion U.S. dollars in 2023. Although the phenomenon profits greatly from the technological advances of the 21st century, as well as from the cultural flexibility of today’s workforce, FDI has a long history, going back to the colonial empires. Not without critics, FDI is generally believed to bring advantages to the investing company, such as access to new markets and decreased costs of labor, materials and production facilities. The local economy can benefit from an infusion of capital, access to new technologies and engagement of native labor pool. There are three recognized types of foreign direct investment, namely horizontal FDI, platform FDI and vertical FDI, along with various methods of implementing the investment itself. FDI considered by many one of the motors of worldwide economic growth. U.S. foreign investment abroad has seen a dramatic growth in the past decades. Multinational American corporations, especially focused on manufacturing, have largely invested in facilities overseas, due to financial benefits. However, a large share of these corporations focuses toward not only supplying the U.S. market, but also the local markets in which they operate. In 2020, the country that received the largest amount of U.S. foreign investment was the United Kingdom, with a little over one trillion U.S. dollars, followed by the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Overall, the total amount of U.S. dollars invested in European states in 2021 reached 3.98 trillion U.S. dollars compared to 2.25 trillion U.S. dollars a decade prior.

How Tariffs Are Impacting the Economy

Tariffs, particularly on renewable technologies and green infrastructure components, have slowed sustainable project implementation and increased the cost of capital. U.S. tariffs on imported solar panels, batteries, and electric vehicle parts—originally aimed at protecting domestic manufacturers—have led to price hikes of 10–15% on green energy projects, delaying infrastructure deployment.

According to the U.S. International Trade Commission, these tariffs have resulted in billions in lost potential investments in climate projects. Additionally, higher import costs undermine investor confidence in large-scale sustainability ventures, discouraging cross-border capital flows and increasing project risks. Tariff-driven inflation and uncertainty have become major headwinds, particularly in emerging markets that rely on foreign tech and capital to build green economies.
