Abstract
The Indo-Pacific and the U.S. have a long track record of partnership, working together to promote sustainable growth and stronger ties through trade, aid, and investment. This policy brief triangulates multiple data sources to understand the value of the U.S. partnership with 46 Indo-Pacific economies across several channels: direct bilateral assistance from USG agencies, the nominal value of USG indirect contributions via multilaterals, private sector investment, and philanthropic flows over 11 years (from 2012 to 2022).
