Figures are complied according to the directional principle; that is, investments from an affiliated company in its parent company are recorded as withdrawals from the parent company.
Figures were first released in Japanese yen and converted to US dollars quarterly using Bank of Japan average inter-bank rates. From 2014 to 2018, the annual revision data converted using annual average rate.
Negative values indicate net inflows.
