[DSD_FDI@DF_FDI_POS_CTRY] FDI positions by counterpart area, BMD4
Updated by provider on August 1, 2025 (12:19 PM).
This dataset FDI positions by counterpart area, BMD4 includes inward and outward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) positions by partner country for OECD reporting economies:
- Inward FDI positions by partner country measure the total level of direct investment in the reporting economy at the end of the year, by source countries, enabling, for example, the identification of the major sources of FDI for a specific OECD economy. Inward FDI positions are allocated to the immediate investing country but inward FDI positions allocated to the ultimate investing country are also available for some OECD economies.
- Outward FDI positions by partner country measure the total level of direct investment from the reporting economy at the end of the year, by destination countries, enabling, for example, the identification of the major destinations of FDI for a specific OECD economy. Outward FDI positions are allocated to the immediate counterpart country for all OECD countries.
Inward and outward FDI positions by partner country are presented according to the directional principle (unless otherwise specified in the country level metadata); they are measured in USD millions, in millions of national currency and as a share of total FDI positions.
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.
Historical and unrevised series of FDI positions by counterpart area under the previous BMD3 methodology can be accessed in the archived dataset FDI positions by partner country.
