  2. U.S. Portfolio Investment Surveys William Griever

  3. Survey Perspective • Part of an integrated system • Used in conjunction with monthly flow data • Surveys are detailed, accurate, but not timely • Monthly data very timely, but less accurate • Used together to create ongoing estimates

  4. Survey History • First survey in 1974 • Measured foreign investment in U.S. securities • Congressional concern over growing foreign influence • Existing data lacked detail

  5. Survey History • Liability surveys continued at 5-year intervals • Correct amounts foreign held • Improve geography • Foreign ownership increasing • Dec. 1974 - 4.8% • June 2002 - 12.2%

  6. Asset Surveys • First in 1994 • Levels of U.S. foreign security holdings had been modest • $ 9 billion per year 1980-1989 • $65 billion per year 1990-1994 • Assets were believed to be under-counted

  7. Asset Survey Results • Measured U.S. holdings of foreign securities 60% above estimates • $870 billion vs. $540 billion • Showed need for future surveys

  8. Asset Under-Count • Worldwide problem • Measured portfolio investment flows 1991-1994 • Assets $400 billion per year • Liabilities $500 billion per year • Countries had concentrated on measuring liabilities

  9. First CPIS • Organized by the IMF, at year-end 1997 • 29 countries participated • World measured additional $750 billion • U.S. measured an additional $300 billion

  10. Problems Remain • Worldwide, at year-end 1997 • Assets $7.7 trillion • Liabilities $9.3 trillion • Difference 18% • Implied more needed to be done

  11. CPIS 2001 • 67 countries • All of the major industrial countries • Most of the major offshore financial centers • Short-term securities included

  12. Problems Remain • Worldwide, at year-end 2001 • Assets $12.6 trillion • Liabilities $15.0 trillion • Difference 16% • Implies more needs to be done

  13. The Future • Internationally-coordinated annual surveys • Annual U.S. surveys • U.S. benchmark surveys every 5 years • U.S. “Large Reporters” surveys intervening years

  14. Data Uses • Why care about these data? • U.S. is the world’s largest net debtor • Level of U.S. net debt is increasing rapidly • A cause for concern?

  15. U.S. Debt Position

  16. Debt Components

  17. Data Uses • Financial industry analysts • International organizations • U.S. Gov’t policy makers, data compilers • Academic researchers • Correct liabilities country attribution

  18. Country Attribution • Country attribution of U.S. liabilities skewed towards major financial centers • Country attribution on asset surveys accurate • Can use counter-party asset data to improve geography of U.S. liabilities data

  19. Country Attribution

  20. Data Uses • Asset data can be used to estimate other countries’ liabilities • Combined CPIS asset results yield net liability positions by country • Cross-check of reported country liability positions • Improved geography of all countries’ liabilities
