The U.S. Emerges as a Net Beneficiary in U.S.–EU Economic Relations: $3.88 Trillion in Capital Inflows vs. $430 Billion in Trade and Income Outflows (Cumulative 2005–2024)

In 2024, the U.S. current account balance with the European Union included a goods trade deficit of –$236.7 billion, a services trade surplus of +$75.6 billion, and net income receipts of +$12.4 billion, resulting in a current account deficit of –$148.8 billion. At the same time, the U.S. financial account recorded +$514.9 billion in net inflows, reflecting strong EU investment in U.S. financial assets such as stocks, bonds, and securities.

Over the cumulative period from 2005 to 2024, the U.S. received $3.88 trillion in financial inflows from the EU, compared to $430 billion in net outflows to the EU for trade in goods, services, and income. These figures highlight the asymmetry in U.S.–EU economic relations: while the EU gained from trade, the U.S. benefited substantially more through capital inflows—underscoring America’s dominant role as a destination for European investment.
