(3,954 posts)To answer your question, in 2023 France had $370B direct investment in the US. They are the 5th largest foreign investor. The top 5 include Japan, Canada, Germany, UK, and France.
The EU as a whole accounted for $3.46T.
This is for foreign direct investment. It does not include debt held.
