$37T and counting. But nobody seems to want to ask who is on the receiving end of that pile of notes.
- $15.16 trillion (42 percent) is held by US private investors and entities, mostly in the form of savings bonds, mutual funds and pension funds.
- $7.36 trillion (20 percent) is held by intra-governmental US agencies and trusts.
- $4.63 trillion (13 percent) is held by the Federal Reserve.
