Moody's Analytics supplements

For the current account balance, we construct a seasonally adjusted counterpart.

Potentially.

The source does not seem to provide recent documentation (as of 2024, the copy at the IMF DSBB is dated 2012) but the reported line items correspond to the IMF BPM5 framework, not BPM6.

Imports of goods is expressed with a negative sign. In the catalog, it is marked "(-)" rather than "LESS:".
