Z.1: Financial Accounts of the United States

About:

Financial Accounts of the United States - Z.1:

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System releases the Financial Accounts of the United States, refered to as "Z.1". The Financial Accounts of the United States includes data on the flow of funds and levels of financial assets and liabilities, by sector and financial instrument; full balance sheets, including net worth, for households and nonprofit organizations, nonfinancial corporate businesses, and nonfinancial noncorporate businesses; Integrated Macroeconomic Accounts; and additional supplemental detail.

I intend to use this data to build a model of the US economy here.
