Source: US Overseas Loans and Grants, US Agency for International Development, Washington, DC, 1998. This section covers commitments for economic assistance made by USAID and its predecessor agencies to LAC. Commitments include loan authorizations and obligations, and grant obligations. Country-level data include some regional funds where such funds were directly allocated to field missions. Data include obligations for grants and loans from the Development Assistance ( DA) funds, Economic Support Fund (ESF), and Food for Peace (PL 480) appropriations. Totals also include capitalized interest, which represents interest on loans that, rather than being paid when due, is added to the principal amount of the loan, and is t hereafter treated as principal to be repaid with interest. Food for Peace is composed of Title I (sales agreements – administered by the US Department of Agriculture), Title II (food aid programs), and Title III (the food for development program).

Definition: Regional Office (ROCAP) is the Regional Office for Central American programs.

Notes: Data are in millions of current US dollars and correspond to US fiscal years, ending September 30th. Figures for 1997 are preliminary.[an error occurred while processing this directive]
