Yes,
When the war began the US was neutral but brought hundreds of tons of American supplies to Europe to support both sides of the war. The allies payed in gold, and the US continued to provide them with production even after they themselves entered the war because the US could produce at levels no other country could.
After the War the European countries were in a lot of debt. Yet, the US was economy was doing very well (roaring twenties). The US would give loans to Germany (in dollars) that Germany would pay the allies for their reparations, then the Allies would pay back their loans to the US with the dollars bolstering the US economy.
The Dawes Plan, a diplomatic agreement between the major powers of WW1 made by Charles Dawes, supported this plan by reducing the reparations of Germany and provided more bank loans to Germany to try and stabilize the European economy.
So after the war all the great powers of Europe needed to repay loans to the US, making the US the creditor of the world.
However, this plan was incredibly unstable as if the US stopped providing a large amount of loans to Germany the cycle would fall apart. With the Stock Market crash of 1929 this is exactly what happened.
I hope I explained that well.

After World War I, the United States emerged as a significant creditor nation, which significantly influenced its foreign policy. The U.S. sought to promote international stability and economic recovery, advocating for reparations and loans to European nations to ensure their economic health and, in turn, protect American investments. This financial leverage often translated into political influence, as the U.S. aimed to prevent the spread of communism and foster favorable trade relations. However, the focus on economic interests also led to isolationist tendencies in the 1920s and 1930s, as the U.S. prioritized domestic concerns over international commitments.
The U.S. emerged as a creditor nation after World War I due to the significant loans it provided to its European allies. These loans facilitated the war efforts of nations like Britain and France, leading to a financial shift where the U.S. became increasingly influential in global economics. By the war's end, the U.S. had established itself as a major economic power, setting the stage for its leadership role in international affairs in the decades to follow.
