Country/territory here refers to the immediate
source economy. It does not necessarily reflect the country/territory
in which the funds are initially mobilised. |
|
(2) |
Negative inflow does not necessarily relate
to equity withdrawal. It may be the result of repayment of
loans to non-resident affiliates. |
