About the Data
This report represents the latest avail-
able statistics on foreign direct invest-
ment in the United States at the time of
publication in October 2014. The United
States defines FDIUS (inward invest-
ment) as the ownership or control,
directly or indirectly, by one foreign enti-
ty of a 10 percent or more ownership
share of an incorporated or unincorpo-
rated U.S. business enterprise.
Note: Cumulative foreign direct investment in the United States is shown on a historical-cost basis in this report.

2012-2013
Overview
Foreign direct investment in the United States known as FDIUS totaled nearly $2.8 tril-
lion through 2013 on a historical-cost basis. FDIUS is equivalent to about 16.5 percent of
U.S. gross domestic product. Each year foreign firms make new investments in the
United States and others grow their well-established U.S. operations, which benefit the
American economy in numerous ways. Foreign firms build new factories, fund research
and development, and employ millions of Americans in well-paying jobs.
In 2013 alone, international firms invested $236 billion in the U.S. economy, a 35 percent
increase from 2012. Last year was the third best year for inward direct investment over
the past decade. The illustration on the right shows that in 2013 equity drove much of
this increase up $33 billion over the previous year. Reinvestment of earnings rose slight-
ly. Debt instruments of $9.4 billion were positive last year.
Worldwide investment followed a similar, although a less robust, pattern. Globally, annu-
al foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows totaled $1.45 trillion in 2013, a nine percent
increase from 2012, according to the United Nations Conference on Trade and
Development (UNCTAD) World Investment Report 2014 (WIR).
Whether the United States will retain its status as the world’s most attractive investment
location depends largely on future macroeconomic and financial conditions. For the sec-
ond year in a row, A.T. Kearney’s FDI Confidence Index ranked the United States as the
world's top market in 2014. UNCTAD’s WIR predicts that global FDI could rise to $1.6 tril-
lion in 2014 and possibly reach $1.8 trillion by 2016. Cash holdings estimated at $4.5 tril-
lion also remain high among the world’s 5,000 largest multinational companies.
More foreign direct investment dollars flowed to the United States last year than to any
other single country in the world. International investment in the U.S. market topped
other large markets, including China, Russia, Hong Kong, and Brazil. However, the World
Investment Report shows foreign companies invested more in the larger European
Union (EU) market than in the United States in 2013.
Worldwide, cumulative foreign inward investment rose to $25.5 trillion through 2013.
The U.S. share dropped to less than one-fifth last year from more than a third in 2000
because competition for foreign investment dollars has increased, and multinational
companies have expanded their investments in faster growing developing markets. For
the fourth consecutive year, more than half of all foreign direct investment in 2013
flowed to developing and transition economies; in fact, developed countries now
account for only 39 percent of global FDI inflows.
UNCTAD’s WIR cites global economic fragility and policy uncertainty as underlying fac-
tors for a delayed recovery in worldwide investment. And while most nations are eager
to attract foreign investment dollars, many are also engaging in protectionist activities,
such as reinforcing the regulatory environment for foreign investment and tightly moni-
toring cross-border mergers and acquisitions.

Cumulative FDIUS Climbs to $2.8 Trillion
Annual foreign direct investment inflows over the last
few years have pushed total foreign investment on a
historical-cost basis to $2.8 trillion through 2013.
Foreign companies invested more in the United States
than any other country in the world last year, whether
measured cumulatively or by 2013 investment. There
are any number of reasons why foreign investors prefer
the American economy. First, and perhaps most impor-
tant, the United States has one of the most open mar-
kets and investment climates in the world. Other advan-
tages attracting foreign companies include:
an unrivaled consumer market;
a world-class system of higher education;
a skilled and productive workforce;
an entrepreneurial culture of innovation and
risk taking;
a transparent regulatory environment; and,
the largest venture capital and private equity market
in the world.

United States Faces Increasing Competition
for Foreign Investment Dollars
While foreign direct investment is an important part of
the U.S. economy, the U.S. slice of worldwide FDI has
shrunk as competitors vie for investment dollars by
opening their economies to global investors. The
United States held only 19 percent of the world’s
inward FDI stock through 2013, an increase of 17 per-
cent from the previous year. In contrast, the U.S.
accounted for more than a third of the world’s foreign
investment stock at the beginning of the 21st
century.
The European Union’s share rose to 34 percent in 2013
from 31 percent in 2000.
Foreign companies are investing more in transition and
developing economies; nevertheless, the total stock of
inward investment in these markets is still lower than in
developed economies. Among the transition economies
of southern and eastern Europe and the Common-
wealth of Independent States, including the Russian
Federation, the stock of foreign investment increased
to four percent through 2013 from one percent in 2000.
Developing economies saw the largest gain, claiming a
third through 2013, with China at four percent and
Brazil holding three percent.

Cumulative Foreign Direct Investment
in the United States by Country
Through 2013
Eight Countries Account for 80 Percent of
Foreign Direct Investment in the United
States
A handful of countries provided the lion’s share of the
$2.8 trillion in cumulative foreign direct investment in
the United States by year-end 2013. The United
Kingdom ranked as the single largest foreign investor
in the U.S. economy, constituting nearly one-fifth of all
cumulative foreign direct investment holdings. Japan’s
investment stock in the United States made up nearly
12 percent, followed by the Netherlands at 10 percent.
Eight countries accounted for 80 percent of the stock
of foreign direct investment in the United States
through 2013. More than 170 other countries repre-
sented the remainder.
Foreign Direct Investment Inflows in 2013
Third Strongest Over Past Decade
Foreign companies invested $236 billion in the United
States last year, the third highest since 2003. Foreign
direct investment in the United States consists of rein-
vestment of earnings, equity other than reinvestment of
earnings investment, and debt instruments investment.
Over the past decade, foreign direct investment in the
United States peaked in 2008, reaching $310 billion.
The recent global economic recession had a direct
influence on inward direct investment transactions. In
the United States, foreigners dramatically reduced their
investment in 2009, which dropped more than half from
the prior year. Foreign investment in the United States
increased in 2010 and again in 2011, before dropping in
2012. Last year, foreign companies' confidence in the
U.S. market returned, and inward direct investment rose
35 percent.

2011-2013
Top Investing Countries Significantly
Increase FDIUS Flows Last Year
Each of the top five countries by foreign investment
inflows in 2013 increased their level of foreign invest-
ment spending in the United States over the previous
year. Japanese firms invested 80 percent more in 2013
than in 2012, and British investment rose by two-thirds.
Luxembourg invested three times more in the United
States in 2013 than a year earlier.
Canadian companies expanded their investments in the
United States by more than 50 percent between 2012
and 2013. Switzerland invested $17 billion in 2013, a
large turnaround following a disinvestment* by Swiss
companies of $2.4 billion in 2012.
Data by country are shown on a directional basis without current-cost adjustment.
**Disinvestment, or net negative financial inflows, occurs when flows from U.S. affiliates to
their parent companies are greater than flows from parents to affiliates. Net negative flows
may be due to reductions of equity (selloffs) in their affiliates by parents, distributions of
earnings by affiliates to their parents, or net loan payments from affiliates to parents.

Top Countries by FDIUS Flows
2013
Japan Ranks as Largest Foreign Direct
Investor in the United States in 2013
Japan was the United States’ largest foreign investor in
2013 at nearly $45 billion. Japanese investment consti-
tuted nearly one-fifth of all foreign investment in the
United States last year. The United Kingdom, Luxem-
bourg, Canada, and Switzerland rounded out the top
five largest investors in the United States.
Ireland, the sixth largest investor, provided $15 billion,
followed by the Netherlands, which was the largest
investor in 2012. Germany, Norway, and the British
Caribbean Islands took the remaining top spots in 2013.
As a group, the top 10 investing countries represented
92 percent of all foreign direct investment in the United
States in 2013.

European Investors Dominate FDIUS
Cumulatively, Europe is the largest regional investor in
the United States. It provided more than two-thirds of
all foreign investment through 2013. These figures
include the 28 European Union countries and other
European nations with an investment stake in the
United States. For example, two non-EU member coun-
tries—Switzerland and Norway—accounted for more
than 10 percent of cumulative investment from Europe
by the end of 2013.
The Asia and Pacific region ranked second accounting
for 17 percent of FDIUS stock through 2013. Canada
held nine percent.
The Caribbean countries made up the fourth-largest
investment region at $74 billion as of year-end 2013.
The British Islands (British Virgin Islands, Cayman
Islands, Montserrat, and Turks and Caicos Islands)
ranked first in Caribbean investment.
The stock of direct investment from South and Central
America, the Middle East, and Africa remains tiny. By
the end of 2013, each represented less than one per-
cent.

Inward Investment from Leading Countries,
2012-2013
(in millions of dollars)
Norway and Denmark Post Impressive
Growth Rates in FDIUS Between 2012 and
2013
Two Scandinavian countries substantially increased
their foreign direct investment positions in the United
States between 2012 and 2013. Norway more than
tripled its investment, and Denmark raised its stake
nearly twentyfold. Inward investment from sixth-ranked
Ireland totaled $15.4 billion in 2013 after a billion dollar
disinvestment in 2012.
By comparison, direct investment from the Netherlands
shrank 64 percent in 2013 from $36 billion in 2012.
French investment also dropped sharply, falling to $3.3
billion in 2013 from $22.9 billion the previous year.
Notably, Chinese direct investment flows fell in 2013
after rising every year since 2009. Italian investment
was down by four percent between 2012 and 2013. In
all, only four of the top 20 countries decreased their
investment holdings in the United States in 2013.

Manufacturing is Largest Industry for
Foreign Investors
All sectors of the U.S. economy represent significant
business opportunities for foreign companies.
Exceeding $900 billion in 2013, manufacturing account-
ed for one-third of cumulative foreign direct investment.
Because the United States has the world’s largest and
most liquid financial markets, foreign companies, on a
cumulative basis, have invested heavily in the U.S.
finance and insurance industries, reaching $365 billion
by year-end 2013. International companies have spent
more than $300 billion in wholesale trade over time.
Banking, information, and professional, scientific, and
technical services each received more than $100 billion
in cumulative foreign direct investment through 2013.

Inward Investment Flows from BRICS Countries
2011-2013
China Leads Again as Largest U.S. Investor
Among (BRICS) Countries in 2013
The large emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India,
China, and South Africa are known collectively as the
BRICS. Despite their size, their combined investment in
the United States totaled just 1.5 percent of all foreign
investment in 2013. At $2.4 billion, China ranked as the
largest BRICS investor in 2013. Its investment tripled
from 2011 to 2012, but dropped to $2.4 billion in 2013.
South Africa’s investment more than tripled between
2012 and 2013 to $500 million. Russia invested nearly
$800 million in 2013 after a year of disinvestment.
In contrast, Brazil and India posted disinvestments in
2013. Brazil’s U.S. investment of $3.7 billion in 2011
outpaced the other BRICS over the past three years.
India’s investment in the United States has been mod-
est totaling less than $1.5 billion in 2011 and 2012.
Even as the BRICS invest more globally, their combined
investment in the United States remains small.
According to UNCTAD’s WIR, the BRICS represented 14
percent of total worldwide investment outflows in
2013. China and Russia led the BRICS in global invest-
ment.

Chemicals Top FDIUS Manufacturing Sector
International firms invest heavily in U.S. manufacturing.
Chemicals, with $280 billion in cumulative foreign direct
investment by the end of 2013, represented nearly a
third of cumulative foreign direct investment in U.S.
manufacturing. Foreign companies spend billions every
year in the U.S. chemicals industry because it boasts a
highly educated workforce, world-class research cen-
ters, strong intellectual property protections, and a
robust regulatory system.
Foreign investment in the transportation equipment
industry, which mostly covers auto and auto parts man-
ufacturing, totaled $110 billion through 2013. Inter-
national companies invested a total of $108 billion in
petroleum and coal products by 2013. Machinery
ranked fourth at $87 billion the same year. The non-
metallic minerals products industry, made up largely of
cement and concrete manufacturing, ranked fifth
receiving $55 billion in cumulative foreign direct invest-
ment through 2013.

Industry Segment
Foreign direct investment in finance and insurance rose
to $24.1 billion in 2013 from $4.7 billion in 2012, grow-
ing faster than foreign investment flows to other sec-
tors of the American economy. The information sector
attracted $26.3 billion in foreign direct investment in
2013, a fourfold increase over the previous year.
Foreign investment in U.S. wholesale trade grew nearly
50 percent to $31.7 billion in 2013.
Foreign direct investment shrank in just two sectors of
the U.S. economy last year. International firms lowered
their investment holdings in U.S. real estate and leasing
to $200 million in 2013. International companies
reduced investment in professional, scientific and tech-
nical services by nearly 50 percent between 2012 and
2013.

Food Realizes Large Growth in FDIUS Last
Year
At nearly $95 billion, international investment in manu-
facturing provided more than 40 percent of total foreign
direct investment inflows in 2013. Chemicals manufac-
turing, dominated by pharmaceuticals and medicines,
received $56 billion in foreign investment in 2013, a 22
percent increase over 2012.
U.S. food manufacturing was another important sector
for foreign investors last year, with spending rising to
$13.2 billion, nearly quadrupling from $3.5 billion in
2012. Foreign investment in U.S. machinery manufactur-
ing grew to $12 billion in 2013.
Foreign investment dropped in two key U.S. manufac-
turing sectors. In transportation equipment, inward
investment flows fell below $1 billion in 2013 compared
to $6.9 billion in 2012. In electrical equipment, appli-
ances, and components manufacturing, foreign direct
investment shrank to $6.4 billion in 2013 from $23.1 bil-
lion the previous year.
