Net financial flows, bilateral (NFL, current US$)

This indicator captures the financial interactions between two countries, focusing on the net amount of monetary assistance provided through loans and credits. It encompasses various forms of borrowing, including arrangements made by government entities, autonomous institutions, and official export credit agencies. The net flows are calculated by subtracting the principal repayments made by the borrowing nation from the total disbursements received during a given year, reflecting the financial support or burden experienced by the borrower. Presented in current U.S. dollars, this metric serves as a crucial gauge of bilateral financial engagement, highlighting the dynamics of international lending relationships and their potential impacts on economic development and stability.
