About this Dataset

Direct Investment Positions By Counterpart Economy (formerly CDIS)

The Direct Investment Positions by Counterpart Economy dataset includes data on (i) inward foreign direct investment positions by instrument (equity or debt) and by economy of immediate foreign investor;and (ii) outward direct investment positions by instrument (equity or debt) and by economy of immediate foreign investment economy. In most instances the database contains separate data on net equity and net debt positions as well as separate data on financial companies and fellow enterprises. The dataset also includes tables that present "mirror" data (i.e., tables in which data from the reporting economy are shown side-by-side with the data obtained from all other counterpart reporting economies). Direct Investment statistics are useful for monitoring, evaluating, and providing insights into an economy's integration with other economies. The data are sourced from country authorities (central banks, national statistical institutes, ministries of finance), collected in the IMF's annual Coordinated Direct Investment Survey and based on the directional principle.
