Read from UNCTAD's own US.FdiFlowsStock bulk file on UNCTADstat, the data behind the World Investment Report. UNCTAD's regional and group totals are left out, as are states that no longer exist. The US$ amount is kept beside the share, and UNCTAD's footnote travels with any reading compiled on a different accounting basis.
