摘要:This paper constructs an analytical framework of the global flow of funds (GFF) to observe the process and obstacles of China–US decoupling. We speculate China–US structural relationship in savings and investment imbalance during 1980–2021 by the flow data. Then we also observe the issues of China–US in the external financial assets and liabilities by stock data, focusing on the external adjustment mode in 2017–2021.

This study improves upon GFF statistics to measure global financial stability at the national and cross-border sectoral levels. After investigating the data sources and rebuilding the statistical framework to establish the sectoral from-whom-to-whom financial stock matrix (FFSM) with the sectoral account data and international statistics from the Coordinated Portfolio Investment Survey, International Investment Position, and Bank for International Settlements (BIS) statistics. The FFSM focuses on counterparty national and cross-border exposures of the sectors in China, Japan, the Unites Kingdom, and the United States to construct country-specific financial networks and connect each country-level network based on cross-border exposures. The analytical results systematically show the bilateral exposures between the four countries in the GFF, identify sectoral interlinkages, the characteristics of overseas investment, and external shocks and internal influences. We also further propose an eigenvector decomposition of the effects to provide an analytical description of the propagation process.
