Summary:To assess the conditions for the financing of the U.S. current account, this paper analyzes the determinants of bond flows into the United States, using a data set constructed for the period 1994-2006 from U.S. Treasury International Capital Flows (TIC) statistics. Panel vector autoregression and instrumental variables approaches are used to estimate the impact of changes in interest rate differentials and other fundamentals on capital flows into the U.S. The paper finds evidence for an impact from interest rate differentials to bond inflows that has increased over time, consistent with a theoretical model of declining home bias.
