Canada's international investment position, second quarter 2012
Canada's net foreign debt increased $23.4 billion to $241.6 billion at the end of the second quarter. This resulted mainly from the impact of weaker stock markets on the relatively larger equity component in Canadian outward investment positions, as well as further foreign investment in the economy in the quarter.
