The Current Account

This study discusses the current account and itsinfluencing factors. The factors influencing the current account are macroeconomic factors, including national income (GDP), inflation, interest rate (SBI), and exchange rate.The period of this study starts from 1999 - 2016 using annual data. This study looks at the short-term and long-term effects of macroeconomic factors that affect the current account balance. The research model of this study was using cointegration test and Error Correction Model (ECM).The results showed that in the long run, the macroeconomic variables of national income (GDP) and inflation significantly influenced the current account balance. While in the short term, macroeconomic variables inflation and exchange rate significantly influenced the current account balance. Thusit can be concluded that, the inflation variable is the main macroeconomic variable that influenced the current account balance in the long term and in the short term. Keywords: current account, national income, SBI, inflation, exchange rate

Foreign Borrowing

An advanced financial system is regarded as a hallmark of development. Lending or borrowing money, or debt, plays a vital role in an economy. But just like any other economic decision, borrowing requires a thorough analysis of contingencies. Debt may lead to prosperity through sound investment, or it may overwhelm firms/people when not used properly. In today’s circumstances, borrowing from world financial markets is easier than ever before. In this paper, the possibility of foreign borrowing helping Turkey to improve its macroeconomic variables of GDP, consumption, government spending, investment, exports and current account balance is explored. We look for cointegration relationships between various foreign debt variables classified as public or private foreign debt; short-term or long-term foreign debt, and various macroeconomic variables. Later, the variables studied are tested to see if there are any statistically causal relationships between them. The following results are found: short-term foreign debt is not cointegrated with any of the macroeconomic variables when long-term foreign debt is cointegrated with some of them; private foreign debt is more effective than public foreign debt on macroeconomic variables. Whilst Turkey is critically dependent on foreign borrowing in financing its current account deficit, its current account balance is not cointegrated with any of the foreign debt data. Public foreign debt precedes government spending where private foreign debt follows private sector spending. This is interpreted as a sign that the private sector is more careful with its borrowing decisions than the government since its spending, which is procyclical with the business cycle, is leading its borrowing.

Depreciation of the rupiah prompted Bank Indonesia raised SBI to strengthen the rupiah, inflation has a downward trend when the appreciation of the rupiah, and the movement of the exchange rate also change the position of the current account of Indonesia. This study aimed to determine the role and effects of changes in exchange rates, inflation, gross domestic product, interest rates and the current account balance for each variable. Data obtained from secondary data is exchange rate, inflation, GDP, interest rates and the current account data from 2000:1 up to 2010:4. The model used in this study is the econometric model by the method of Vector Autoregressive (VAR) that in their analysis the instrument has Impulse Response Function (IRF) and Variance Decomposition (VD). The results of this study concluded that (1) All variable giving each other random shock to other variables and response by each variable so as to achieve long-term equilibrium. This is shown on the estimation IRF test on each variable; (2) All variables are mutually contribute to other variables. It is shown by the results of estimation VD test, in which each variable contributed to other variables.

The Current Account

Since the currency crisis in 1998, Korea has experienced continuous current account surpluses. Recently, the current account surplus increased more rapidly—amounting to 7.7 percent of GDP in 2015. In this paper, we investigate the underlying reasons for the widening of Korea's current account surpluses. We find that the upward trend in Korea's current account surpluses is largely explained by its demographical changes. Other economic variables are only helpful when explaining short run fluctuations in current account balances. Moreover, we show that Korea's current account surplus is expected to disappear by 2042 as it becomes one of the most aged economies in the world. Demographic changes are so powerful that they explain, quite successfully, the current account balance trends of other economies with highly aged populations such as Japan, Germany, Italy, Finland, and Greece. When we add the real exchange rate as an additional explanatory variable, it is statistically significant with the right sign, but the magnitude explained by it is quite limited. For example, to reduce the current account surplus by 1 percentage point, a 12 percent depreciation is needed. If Korea's current exchange rate is undervalued 4 to 12 percent less than the level consistent with fundamentals, it is impossible to reduce Korea's current account surplus to a reasonable level by adjusting the exchange rate alone. Another way to reduce current account surplus is to expand fiscal policies. We find, however, that the impact of fiscal adjustments in reducing current account surplus is even more limited. According to our estimates, reducing the current account surplus by 1 percentage point requires an increase in budget deficits (as a ratio to GDP) of 5 to 6 percentage points. If we allow endogenous movements of exchange rate and fiscal policy, the impact of exchange rate adjustment increases by 1.6 times but that of fiscal policy decreases that it is no longer statistically significant.

AbstractDue to negotiations on accession to the EU, the new EU member states from Central and Eastern Europe went through the financial opening. In the pre-crisis period followed by high liquidity in global markets, most of the EU new member states experienced rapid credit growth, which conditioned the appreciation of the exchange rate. External imbalances and vulnerabilities built up. Countries experienced deterioration in their current accounts. This paper investigates the link between financial openness, real effective exchange rate, financial crisis and current account balance within the Panel Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) framework for 11 new European Union members during the period from 1999 to 2016. The results obtained by the use of pooled mean group estimator (PMG) show that in the long run, financial openness has a significant negative impact on the current account balance. In the short run, crisis significantly influences the current account balance having a positive sign.

Purpose This is a theoretical paper in the field of international macroeconomics. The purpose of this paper is to focus on a dynamic interaction between current account imbalance and unemployment in response to some policy-induced shocks for a small open economy under a flexible exchange rate. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses a two-sector framework: one sector is traded and another is the non-traded sector that is subject to an effective demand constraint. The current account imbalance arises due to the discrepancy between production of traded goods, household consumption of traded goods and government purchases of importables. The authors keep the asset structure simple by considering only domestic currency and foreign bonds that are imperfect substitutes. The paper considers a standard methodology of dynamic adjustment process involving change in foreign exchange reserves and exchange rate under perfect foresight. The saddle path properties of the equilibrium are also examined. Findings The results of comparative static exercises depend on a set of structural features of a developing country, which include asset substitutability, wage price rigidity and sectoral asymmetries. The paper shows that expansionary monetary policy, balanced budget fiscal expansion and financial liberalization have an ambiguous effect on the current account balance, foreign exchange reserves, non-traded sector and the level of employment. Originality/value The existence of Keynesian unemployment with fixed prices is the key ingredient of this paper. The paper introduces the problem of effective demand to analyze the dynamics of current account balance and exchange rate, which, in turn, determine the sectoral composition of output and level of employment.

This paper examines the impact of structural and cyclical factors on Serbia?s current account. We have applied several filters to turn off the long-term (structural) component and isolate the influence of cyclical factors. In this paper, we show that structural factors were more important determinants of the current account deficit in the full-time sample (1997-2016), while cyclical factors showed a stronger impact in the post-crisis period when the deficit was reduced. Although they lost their intensity during the crisis and in the post-crisis period, the structural factors determine the trend of the current account balance in the long-term. For further improvement of the current account, measures to increase exports should be taken. The structural changes of production, the wider range of support for export financing to small and medium-sized enterprises, and the application of advanced technologies in manufacturing could help to reduce the trade deficit, making the current account deficit sustainable.
