Top Foreign Holders of U.S. Treasury Securities
Japan
Japan holds the massive $1.18 trillion in US treasury assets, which ranks it at the top spot among the largest US Treasury holders. The country’s holdings of U.S. Treasuries increased by about 8.6%, rising from $1.095 trillion in September 2024 to $1.189 trillion in September 2025. Therefore, Japan still maintains the top position globally. Japan’s central bank and institutional investors purchase the U.S. reasuries to help manage the exchange rate and maintain stable foreign reserves.
United Kingdom
The UK is a major global investor and holds a massive $865 billion of US treasury securities. This marks an increase from $769 billion in the previous year. The country is continuously increasing its U.S. Treasury securities. Additionally, the UK’s position among the largest US Treasury holders shows its stable financial system and strategic investments in U.S. markets.
🇨🇳 China
China is the third-largest holder of US treasuries after Japan and the United Kingdom. The country holds $700 billion in US Treasuries in 2025, which is a slight decrease of 9.2% from $772 billion a year earlier. U.S.–China relations have remained strained amid ongoing trade tensions and economic rivalry. Recently, the U.S. has imposed tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports, while China responded with 125% tariffs on American goods. These rising trade tensions may influence how China manages its U.S. bond holdings in the future.

China has already been reducing its U.S. Treasury holdings over the years. From a peak of around $1.3 trillion in 2013, its US treasury bond holdings have declined to approximately $700 billion in 2025.
🇰🇾 Cayman Islands
With $426 billion in holdings, the Cayman Islands is the fourth largest holder of U.S. Treasury securities. It is a major offshore financial center located in the western Caribbean Sea. This major holding is largely due to hedge funds and private financial institutions operating through Cayman-based structures. Additionally, the country’s holdings have slightly increased from $424 billion a year ago to $426 billion in 2025.
🇧🇪 Belgium
Belgium holds $466 billion in U.S. Treasury securities in 2025, which is a 27% increase from $366 billion in 2024. This is a big increase, which shows that Belgium has added more to its US debt holdings in just one year. One reason for this massive rise is that the US Treasuries are seen as a safe and stable investment, especially during uncertain times.

🇱🇺 Luxembourg
Luxembourg is a major European financial hub, with around 25% of its GDP coming from the financial sector. The country holds the fifth largest $421 billion in U.S. Treasuries, up from $407 billion in 2024. Luxembourg is also among the wealthiest nations in the world due to its GDP per capita, which currently ranks as the highest globally. Additionally, it is home to over 120 international banks and numerous investment funds.
Several other countries also hold significant amounts of U.S. Treasury securities, including Canada, Belgium, France, and Ireland. Canada holds $475 billion, which reflects its strong economic ties with the United States.
Ireland stands at $340 billion, while Taiwan and Switzerland hold $312 billion and $302 billion, respectively. Hong Kong and Singapore follow closely with $238 billion and $259 billion, respectively. Even India and Brazil, two growing economies, maintain massive holdings of U.S. securities at $202 billion and $172 billion, respectively.
Conclusion
Collectively the top 15 countries hold a combined approximately $6.7 trillion in U.S. Treasury securities in 2025. Japan alone holds more than $1 trillion of US treasury bonds, followed by the United Kingdom and China. The U.S. uses these securities as a way to borrow money to finance its national debt. By selling Treasury bonds to foreign countries and investors, the government raises funds to cover budget deficits and finance various public projects.
