This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $441,000 supports economic research and analysis of capital flows being conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research from August 2022 through July 2025. Under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075), the awardee will analyze the origins and consequences of international capital allocation using disaggregated data from the Federal Reserve System. Key products include developing new economic frameworks for determining capital flows, compiling and disseminating statistics from a comprehensive dataset on international security holdings, publishing findings in academic papers and reports, and training graduate students in international finance and macroeconomics. By matching security-level information to investor and firm-level data, this research aims to provide further insights into the motives, channels, and distortions affecting global capital movement patterns.
