The current account balance in billions of US dollars: trade in goods and services, income from investment and labor, and current transfers, all together. A positive value means a country exports capital, a negative one that it imports it. By definition the sum over all countries of the world should be zero, but in practice it fails to balance by several hundred billion: the discrepancy comes from countries recording the same flows differently.
Important: The same indicator as a percent of GDP is available separately, and for comparing countries it suits better. The absolute value is needed to see the scale of the flows in the world economy.
