About this data
This dataset FDI positions main aggregates, BMD4 is updated every quarter and includes annual aggregate Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) positions for OECD member countries and for non-OECD G20 countries (Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and South Africa), which are included in International Investment Position (IIP) accounts.FDI positions record the total level of direct investment at a given point in time, usually the end of a quarter or of a year. In this dataset, FDI positions are presented on two different basis: the asset/liability presentation: FDI statistics are organised according to whether the investment relates to an asset or a liability for the country compiling the statistics. The asset/liability presentation does not show the direction of influence as the directional presentation does. the directional presentation: FDI statistics are organised according to the direction of the investment for the reporting economy—either outward or inward. For more details on the difference between the two presentations, see the OECD note Implementing latest international standards-Asset liability versus directional presentation FDI positions aggregates in this dataset are measured in USD millions, in millions of national currency and as a share of GDP. In 2014, many countries implemented the latest international standards for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) statistics: the OECD’s Benchmark Definition of FDI, 4th edition (BMD4); and the IMF’s Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual, 6th edition (BPM6) This OECD database was launched in March 2015 which includes the data series reported by national experts according to BMD4. The data are for the most part based on balance of payments statistics published by Central Banks and Statistical Offices following the recommendations of the IMF’s BPM6 and the OECD’s BMD4. However, some of the data relate to other sources such as notifications or approvals.
