Consolidated Foreign Claims, Immediate Borrower Basis - Foreign claims are defined as the sum of cross-border claims (claims that are granted or extended to non-residents) plus foreign offices' local claims in all currencies. On an immediate borrower basis, this category can be calculated as the sum of international claims (cross-border claims and local claims of foreign affiliates in foreign currency) and local claims in local currency. Immediate borrower basis refers to claims allocated to the economy and sector of the contractual counterparty, in contrast with ultimate risk basis in which claims are reallocated to the economy where the ultimate obligor resides. Data are available for the following APEC economies as reporter economies: Australia; Canada; Chile; Japan; Korea; Mexico; Chinese Taipei; United States. Data are provided on individual economies by nationality of reporting banks and are amounts outstanding at end-December shown in US dollars (in millions). APEC aggregates are sums based on data available.
