U.S. Overseas Loans and Grants (Greenbook)
This page will take you to the online version of the U.S. Agency for International Development [USAID] U.S. Overseas Loans and Grants, Obligations and Loan Authorizations. The report is commonly known as "The Greenbook".
The Greenbook shows a complete historical record of United States' (U.S.) foreign aid to the rest of the world by reporting all loans and grants authorized by the U.S. Government for each fiscal year.
Users can access standard tables already constructed, or create custom tables and reports by selecting recipient countries, years and type of USG assistance. Data is available in either historical or constant dollars. The historical dollar series looks at current-dollar values actually obligated or lent in that year. The constant-dollar price series, converts each year's loans and obligations amounts into 2009 dollar equivalents. The constant-dollar series allows you to evaluate, on a comparable basis, loans and obligations that occurred in different time periods.
