🇬🇧 English

The Treasury will run a mandatory survey on foreign residents’ holdings of U.S. securities as of June 30, 2026. The survey covers holdings such as U.S. equities, short-term securities, and selected money market instruments. Only U.S. persons or entities contacted directly by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York must report. Companies not contacted have no reporting duty, so the practical action is to watch for official notice and prepare the required SHLA reporting data if selected.
