Measuring U.S. Cross-Border Securities Flows: New Data and A Guide for Researchers

Abstract: Understanding the effects of capital flows across countries depends critically on accurate and comprehensive data.

As we have previously noted, it has long been difficult to reconcile the TIC data on securities holdings with the TIC S transactions data (see Bertaut and Tryon (2007) and Bertaut and Judson (2014, 2022)).
