U.S. Treasury International Capital (TIC) Report – April 2026
The U.S. Department of the Treasury released its Treasury International Capital data for April 2026, indicating a net TIC inflow of $26.1 billion. The net figure results from a combination of foreign private outflows of $23.1 billion and foreign official inflows of $49.2 billion.
Foreign residents increased their holdings of long‑term U.S. securities by $206.0 billion in the month. Within this, private foreign investors contributed $164.4 billion of net purchases, while foreign official institutions added $41.6 billion on a net basis. Adjusted for estimated foreign portfolio acquisitions of U.S. stocks through stock swaps, overall net foreign purchases of long‑term securities are estimated at $103.1 billion.
Conversely, foreign residents reduced their holdings of U.S. Treasury bills by $13.6 billion. Their holdings of all dollar‑denominated short‑term U.S. securities and other custody liabilities rose modestly by $2.6 billion.
U.S. residents expanded their holdings of long‑term foreign securities through net purchases totaling $102.8 billion. Additionally, banks’ own net dollar‑denominated liabilities to foreign residents declined sharply by $79.6 billion.
The Treasury announced that the next TIC release, covering May 2026 data, is scheduled for July 14 2026.
