Douglas B. Weinberg: (202) 606-9590 (Data) BEA 00-16 Christopher L. Bach: 606-9545 (Revisions) Recorded Message: 606-5362 U.S. International Transactions: First Quarter 2000 The estimates of the international transactions accounts released today have been revised to reflect the incorporation of improved estimating methodologies and newly available source data. The July Survey of Current Business will contain detailed international accounts tables and an article describing the revisions. A summary of the revisions is provided in the section on "Revisions" at the end of the release. Current account The U.S. current-account deficit--the combined balances on trade in goods and services, income, and net unilateral current transfers--increased to $102.3 billion in the first quarter of 2000 from $96.2 billion (revised) in the fourth quarter of 1999, according to preliminary estimates of the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis. An increase in the deficit on goods and services more than offset decreases in the deficit on income and in net unilateral current transfers. Goods and services The deficit on goods and services increased to $86.2 billion in the first quarter from $76.3 billion in the fourth. Goods The deficit on goods increased to $105.8 billion in the first quarter from $96.2 billion in the fourth. Goods exports increased to $183.7 billion from $180.1 billion. Both agricultural and nonagricultural exports increased. Within nonagricultural exports, all major commodity categories increased, although the increase in capital goods was curtailed by a sharp drop in civilian aircraft. Goods imports increased to $289.6 billion from $276.3 billion. Petroleum imports surged, largely as a result of a sharp rise in petroleum prices. Nonpetroleum imports increased as a result of increases in almost all major commodity categories. Services The surplus on services decreased to $19.7 billion in the first quarter from $20.0 billion in the fourth. Service receipts increased to $71.3 billion from $69.6 billion. The increase was largely accounted for by an increase in "other" private services, such as financial services and business, professional, and technical services. Most other service categories also increased. Service payments increased to $51.6 billion from $49.6 billion, as a result of increases in all service categories. The largest increases were in "other" private services and in travel. Income The deficit on income decreased to $4.2 billion in the first quarter from $5.7 billion in the fourth. Investment income Income receipts on U.S.-owned assets abroad increased to $79.2 billion from $74.4 billion. Direct investment receipts, "other" private receipts, and U.S. Government receipts all increased. Income payments on foreign-owned assets in the United States increased to $82.0 billion from $78.7 billion. Direct investment payments, "other" private payments, and U.S. Government payments all increased. Compensation of employees Receipts for compensation of U.S. workers abroad were unchanged at $0.6 billion. Payments for compensation of foreign workers in the United States increased slightly to $2.0 billion from $1.9 billion. Unilateral current transfers Unilateral current transfers were net outflows of $11.9 billion in the first quarter, down from net outflows of $14.3 billion in the fourth. The decrease was more than accounted for by a decrease in U.S. Government grants, which were boosted in the fourth quarter by grants to Israel. Capital and financial account Capital account Capital account transactions shifted to net inflows of $0.2 billion in the first quarter from net outflows of $4.0 billion in the fourth. The shift was attributable to the absence of unusually large transactions in the first quarter, following the transfer of the U.S. Government's assets in the Panama Canal Commission to the Republic of Panama in the fourth. (The value of the fourth- quarter transfer of the assets was revised from a historical-cost basis to a current-cost basis.) Financial account Net recorded financial inflows--the difference between changes in U.S.-owned assets abroad and changes in foreign-owned assets in the United States--were $71.7 billion in the first quarter, compared with $69.7 billion (revised) in the fourth. Financial outflows for U.S.-owned assets abroad increased less than financial inflows for foreign-owned assets in the United States. U.S.-owned assets abroad U.S.-owned assets abroad increased $143.3 billion in the first quarter, following an increase of $114.9 billion in the fourth. U.S. claims on foreigners reported by U.S. banks increased $45.1 billion in the first quarter, following an increase of $45.3 billion in the fourth. The first-quarter increase was largely attributable to lending by foreign-owned banks in the United States to their own offices in Western Europe and in Canada and to a substantial increase in U.S. banks' domestic customers' claims. Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities were $27.5 billion in the first quarter, up from $17.2 billion in the fourth. Net U.S. transactions in foreign bonds shifted to net U.S. purchases of $12.0 billion from net U.S. sales of $0.7 billion, partly as a result of an increase in new foreign issues in the United States. Net U.S. purchases of foreign stocks were $15.6 billion, down from $17.8 billion. Net financial outflows for U.S. direct investment abroad were $34.8 billion in the first quarter, up from $33.3 billion in the fourth. Increases in net equity outflows and in reinvested earnings more than offset a decrease in net intercompany debt outflows. U.S. official reserve assets increased $0.6 billion in the first quarter, in contrast to a decrease of $1.6 billion in the fourth. Foreign-owned assets in the United States Foreign-owned assets in the United States increased $215.0 billion in the first quarter, following an increase of $184.6 billion in the fourth. U.S. liabilities to foreigners reported by U.S. banks, excluding U.S. Treasury securities, decreased $6.7 billion in the first quarter, in contrast to an increase of $19.6 billion in the fourth. The shift was partly accounted for by a much smaller increase in U.S. banks' liabilities to their own foreign offices in the first quarter than in the fourth. Net sales of U.S. Treasury securities by foreigners were $9.3 billion in the first quarter, down from $17.2 billion in the fourth. The decrease was largely accounted for by a decrease in net sales by investors in the Caribbean. Net foreign purchases of U.S. securities other than U.S. Treasury securities were a record $133.0 billion in the first quarter, up sharply from $92.3 billion in the fourth. Net foreign purchases of U.S. stocks were a record $61.3 billion, up sharply from $34.4 billion; the increase was largely accounted for by an increase in Western European purchases. Net foreign purchases of U.S. corporate and other bonds were a record $71.7 billion, up from $57.9 billion. Net financial inflows for foreign direct investment in the United States were $42.3 billion in the first quarter, down from $49.4 billion in the fourth. Decreases in net equity inflows and in reinvested earnings more than offset an increase in net intercompany debt inflows. U.S. currency transactions reflected net shipments from foreign countries to the United States of $6.8 billion in the first quarter, in contrast to large net shipments from the United States to foreign countries of $12.2 billion in the fourth. Foreign official assets in the United States increased $20.4 billion in the first quarter, following an increase of $27.5 billion in the fourth. The statistical discrepancy--errors and omissions in recorded transactions--was a positive $30.4 billion in the first quarter, following a positive $30.5 billion in the fourth. In the first quarter, the U.S. dollar appreciated 2 percent on a trade-weighted quarterly average basis against a group of 7 major currencies. Revisions As is customary each June, estimates of U.S. international transactions are revised to incorporate improved estimating methodologies and newly available source data. This year a number of changes are introduced for 1982-99; however, most changes are limited to 1995-99 and arise mainly from newly available and updated source data. The major changes are summarized below. Direct investment income and capital flows are revised for 1982-99 to reflect revised estimates of the current-cost adjustment. Revised estimates of prices for equipment and structures are now incorporated into the current-cost adjustment. Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities are revised for 1995-99 as a result of a more complete accounting for large-scale foreign acquisitions of U.S. companies. Net U.S. purchases of foreign securities are also revised for 1995-99 to account more completely for transactions that are not fully captured by the statistical reporting system. "Other" private income receipts are revised for 1998-99 as a result of the availability of final results of the U.S. Treasury Department's Benchmark Survey of U.S. Portfolio Investment Abroad as of December 31, 1997. Previously, only preliminary results were available. Revisions to "other" private income receipts also reflect the previously mentioned changes to net U.S. purchases of foreign securities. "Other" private services receipts and payments are revised for 1997-99 to reflect revisions made to financial services receipts and payments. "Other" private services receipts are also revised for 1986-99 for improved estimates of expenditures of international organizations in the United States, for 1996-99 for improved estimates of expenditures of foreign embassies in the United States, and for 1986-99 for newly developed estimates of expenditures of temporary nonagricultural workers in the United States. In addition to the above improvements, all estimates have been revised as a result of newly available or revised quarterly and annual survey results and other source data. Most revisions attributable to updated source data are for 1997-99. Revised estimates for the detailed components of the U.S. international transactions accounts for 1998-99 are shown in table 1. Revised estimates for the current-account balance and its major components for 1982-99 are shown in table 2. The fourth-quarter 1999 current-account balance and its components are revised from previously published estimates. Revisions reflect both newly available source data for the fourth quarter and all of the above sources of revision. The current-account deficit for the fourth quarter of 1999 was revised to $96.2 billion from $99.8 billion. The goods deficit was unchanged at $96.2 billion; the services surplus was revised to $20.0 billion from $20.7 billion; the deficit on income was revised to $5.7 billion from $10.4 billion; and unilateral current transfers were revised to net outflows of $14.3 billion from net outflows of $13.9 billion. * * * Release dates for 2000: Second quarter 2000............................................September 13, 2000 (Wednesday) Third quarter 2000.............................................December 14, 2000 (Thursday) * * * BEA's major national, regional, international, and industry estimates, the Survey of Current Business, and BEA news releases are available on BEA's web site: <www.bea.doc.gov> STAT-USA maintains an Internet site that contains BEA estimates, the Survey of Current Business, and BEA news releases.
