List of creditor nations by net international investment position per capita

This is a list of the top creditor nations of the world sorted by their net international investment positions (NIIPs) per capita. A creditor nation is a sovereign state that has a positive NIIP, i.e. a country that has net external assets, NOT net external liabilities.[1]

The table uses the latest available data, mostly from websites approved by the International Monetary Fund,[2] and includes Taiwan and Hong Kong because of their special economic statuses. Population figures may list citizens only or total population, therefore ranking and figures may vary.

The 6 Gulf Cooperation Council countries are widely considered to be creditor nations (and perhaps some of the largest ones), but because of Islamic sensitivities about credit and debt, they seldom report their external assets and liabilities.[3][4]
