Japan’s current account fell in January

Japan's current account amounted to Y65.5 billion, which is lower than the previous value of Y1112.2 billion, and the forecast of Y 270.0 billion, lower for the first time in eight months.

The current account balance is an indicator published by the Ministry of Finance and reflecting the balance of current export and import transactions with goods and services, with the addition of net investment income and current transfers. The surplus of the current account indicates that the inflow of capital into the country exceeds its outflow.
