U.S. International Transactions, 2nd Quarter 2023
Current-Account Deficit Narrowed by 1.1 Percent
Current-Account Balance
The U.S. current-account deficit, which reflects the combined balances on trade in goods and services
and income flows between U.S. residents and residents of other countries, narrowed by $2.4 billion, or
1.1 percent, to $212.1 billion in the second quarter of 2023, according to statistics released today by the
U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The revised first-quarter deficit was $214.5 billion.
The second-quarter deficit was 3.2 percent of current-dollar gross domestic product, up less than 0.1
percent from the first quarter.
The $2.4 billion narrowing of the current-account deficit in the second quarter primarily reflected
expanded surpluses on services and on primary income that were mostly offset by an expanded deficit
on goods.

Current-Account Transactions (tables 1–5)
Exports of goods and services to, and income received from, foreign residents decreased $7.8 billion to
$1.15 trillion in the second quarter. Imports of goods and services from, and income paid to, foreign
residents decreased $10.2 billion to $1.36 trillion.1

Chart 2. Quarterly U.S. Current-Account Transactions

Trade in goods (table 2)
Exports of goods decreased $29.0 billion to $497.6 billion, and imports of goods decreased $17.1 billion
to $772.8 billion. The decreases in both exports and imports mostly reflected a decrease in industrial
supplies and materials, primarily petroleum and products.
Trade in services (table 3)
Exports of services increased $4.7 billion to $247.3 billion, reflecting increases in travel, mainly other
personal travel, and in other business services, mostly professional and management consulting
services. Imports of services decreased $5.5 billion to $175.7 billion, reflecting decreases in transport,
mostly sea freight transport, in other business services, mostly technical, trade-related, and other
business services, and in travel, mainly other personal travel.
Primary income (table 4)
Receipts of primary income increased $15.5 billion to $354.5 billion, and payments of primary income
increased $12.0 billion to $319.5 billion. The increases in both receipts and payments reflected increases

in nearly all major components, led by other investment income. The increase in other investment
income, primarily interest on loans and deposits, was mainly due to higher short-term interest rates
amid tightening of U.S. and foreign monetary policy.
Secondary income (table 5)
Receipts of secondary income increased $1.0 billion to $45.9 billion, reflecting an increase in general
government transfers, mostly fines and penalties. Payments of secondary income increased $0.4 billion
to $89.5 billion, reflecting an increase in private transfers, mostly insurance-related transfers.

Capital-Account Transactions (table 1)
Capital-transfer receipts decreased $37 million to $7 million. Capital-transfer payments decreased $3.2
billion to $2.8 billion, reflecting a decrease in infrastructure grants.

Financial-Account Transactions (tables 1, 6, 7, and 8)
Net financial-account transactions were −$109.0 billion in the second quarter, reflecting net U.S.
borrowing from foreign residents.

increased portfolio investment liabilities, mostly long-term debt securities, by $387.1 billion and direct
investment liabilities, mostly equity, by $100.5 billion. Transactions decreased other investment
liabilities, mostly loans, by $145.2 billion.

Newly Available Source Data on Portfolio Investment
With this release of U.S. international transactions, BEA has incorporated newly available source data
from the Treasury International Capital System “Aggregate Holdings, Purchases and Sales, and Fair Value
Changes of Long-Term Securities by U.S. and Foreign Residents” form (TIC SLT) to more accurately
measure transactions in equity and investment fund shares and in long-term debt securities, which are
components of the portfolio investment category in the financial account. The new TIC SLT transactions
data, beginning with the first quarter of 2023, have replaced BEA’s estimation method for these
portfolio investment transactions statistics that were derived from positions data reported on the TIC
SLT form. For more information on this method, which remains relevant for periods prior to 2023, see
paragraph 17.15 of “U.S. International Economic Accounts: Concepts and Methods.” For more
information on the new source data, see the accompanying “Technical Note.”

Next release: December 20, 2023, at 8:30 a.m. EST

Transactions Accounts (ITAs) and a description of

provided in U.S. International Economic Accounts:
Concepts and Methods.

Definitions
The current account consists of transactions between U.S.
residents and nonresidents in goods, services, primary
income, and secondary income.
Goods are physical items with ownership rights that can be
exchanged among institutional units through transactions.
Services transactions consist of transactions arising from
productive activities that change the condition of the
consumer or that facilitate the exchange of products and
financial assets.
Primary income transactions include investment income
and compensation of employees. Investment income is the
return on holdings of financial assets and includes direct
investment income, portfolio investment income, other
investment income, and income on reserve assets.
Compensation of employees is income for the contribution
of labor inputs to the production process.
Secondary income consists of current transfers between
residents and nonresidents. Unlike an exchange, a transfer
is a transaction in which a good, service, or asset is provided
without a corresponding return of economic value.
Secondary income receipts and payments include U.S.
government and private transfers, such as international
cooperation (primarily U.S. government grants), U.S.
government pensions, fines and penalties, withholding
taxes, personal transfers (remittances), insurance-related
transfers, and other current transfers.
The capital account consists of capital transfers between
residents and nonresidents and the cross-border
acquisition and disposal of nonproduced nonfinancial

assets. Capital transfers include debt forgiveness,
investment grants, and certain disaster-related nonlife
insurance claims. Nonproduced nonfinancial assets include
the acquisition and disposal of natural resources, outright
sales and purchases of franchises and trademarks, and fees
paid by one sporting franchise to another for the transfer of
a player. Capital-account transactions are distinguished
from current-account transactions in that capital-account
transactions result in a change in the assets of one or both
parties to the transaction without affecting the income or
savings of either party.
The financial account consists of transactions between U.S.
residents and nonresidents for direct investment, portfolio
investment, other investment, reserves, and financial
derivatives other than reserves.
Direct investment is a category of cross-border investment
associated with a resident in one economy having control
or a significant degree of influence over the management
of an enterprise resident in another economy. Ownership
or control of 10 percent or more of the voting securities of
an entity is the threshold for separating direct investment
from other types of investment. Direct investment
transactions include transactions in equity (including
reinvestment of earnings) and debt instruments.
Portfolio investment transactions consist of cross-border
transactions involving equity and investment fund shares
and debt securities, excluding those included in direct
investment or reserve assets.
Other investment is a residual category that includes crossborder financial instruments other than those included in
direct investment, portfolio investment, financial
derivatives, and reserve assets. Other investment
transactions consist of transactions in other equity (equity
not in the form of securities), currency and deposits, loans,
insurance technical reserves, trade credit and advances,
and, for liabilities, special drawing rights allocations.
Reserve assets are those external assets that are readily
available to and controlled by monetary authorities for
meeting balance-of-payments financing needs, for
intervention in exchange markets to affect the currency
exchange rate, and for other related purposes, such as
maintaining confidence in the currency and the economy
and serving as a basis for foreign borrowing. The major
published components are monetary gold, International
Monetary Fund (IMF) special drawing rights, reserve
position in the IMF, and other reserve assets.
Financial derivatives other than reserves consist of
financial contracts that are linked to underlying financial
instruments, commodities, or indicators. Transactions in
financial derivatives consist of U.S. cash receipts and
payments arising from the sale, purchase, periodic

Page 5 of 22

settlement, or final settlement of financial derivatives
contracts. Transactions in financial derivatives are only
available as a net value equal to transactions for assets less
transactions for liabilities. A positive value represents net
cash payments by U.S. residents to foreign residents from
settlements of derivatives contracts (net lending), and a
negative value represents net U.S. cash receipts (net
borrowing).
The statistical discrepancy is the difference between net
acquisition of assets and net incurrence of liabilities in the
financial account (including financial derivatives) less the
difference between total credits and total debits recorded
in the current and capital accounts. The statistical
discrepancy can also be calculated as the difference
between net lending (borrowing) measured from financialaccount transactions and net lending (borrowing)
measured from current- and capital-account transactions.
The current-account balance is the difference between
credits (exports and income receipts) and debits (imports
and income payments) in the current account. The balance
is a net measure of current-account transactions between
the United States and the rest of the world. A positive
balance indicates a current-account surplus. A negative
balance indicates a current-account deficit.
Net lending (borrowing) measures the balance of funds
supplied to the rest of the world. Net lending means that,
in net terms, the U.S. economy supplies funds to the rest of
the world. Net borrowing means the opposite. Net lending
(borrowing) can be measured by current- and capitalaccount transactions or by financial-account transactions.
Conceptually, the two measures are equal. In practice, the
two measures differ by the statistical discrepancy.

Release and update cycle
Preliminary quarterly statistics for the ITAs are released in
March, June, September, and December, approximately 80

days after the end of the reference quarter. These statistics
are updated the following quarter to incorporate new
source data. Additionally, in March, seasonally adjusted
statistics for the first, second, and third quarters of the
previous year are revised to force the sum of seasonally
adjusted quarters to equal the annual totals; this forcing
procedure is also incorporated into the preliminary fourth
quarter. Quarterly statistics are open for revision for at least
the prior 3 years in annual updates released in June.
Preliminary annual statistics are released in March, along
with statistics for the fourth quarter of the previous year.
These annual statistics are open for revision for at least the
prior 3 years in subsequent annual updates.

Related statistics
The ITAs constitute one part of a broader set of U.S.
International Economic Accounts that, taken together,
provide a comprehensive, integrated, and detailed picture
of U.S. international economic activities.
The International Investment Position (IIP) Accounts are
released quarterly. Financial transactions reported in the
ITAs are one type of change in position recorded in the IIP
Accounts.
Statistics on direct investment and multinational
enterprises (MNEs) include annual statistics on the
activities of U.S. MNEs and U.S. affiliates of foreign MNEs,
detailed annual and quarterly statistics on direct
investment, and annual statistics on new foreign direct
investment in the United States.
Statistics on international services, released annually,
include detailed annual information on trade in services and
on services supplied through the channel of direct
investment by affiliates of MNEs.
U.S. international trade in goods and services, released by
BEA and the U.S. Census Bureau, provides monthly statistics
on trade in goods and services.

1. All travel purposes include 1) business travel, including expenditures by border, seasonal, and other short-term workers and 2) personal travel, including health-related and education-related travel.
2. Secondary income (current transfer) receipts and payments include U.S. government and private transfers, such as U.S. government grants and pensions, fines and penalties, withholding taxes, personal transfers (remittances), insurancerelated transfers, and other current transfers.
3. Transactions for financial derivatives are only available as a net value equal to transactions for assets less transactions for liabilities. A positive value represents net U.S. cash payments arising from derivatives contracts, and a negative value
represents net U.S. cash receipts.
4. The statistical discrepancy, which can be calculated as line 117 less line 116, is the difference between total debits and total credits recorded in the current, capital, and financial accounts. In the current and capital accounts, credits and debits
are labeled in the table. In the financial account, an acquisition of an asset or a repayment of a liability is a debit, and an incurrence of a liability or a disposal of an asset is a credit.
5. Current- and capital-account statistics in the International Transactions Accounts differ slightly from statistics in the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPAs) because of adjustments made to convert the international transactions
statistics to national economic accounting concepts. A reconciliation between annual statistics in the two sets of accounts appears in table 4.3C of the NIPA Interactive Data Application.
6. Net lending means that U.S. residents are net suppliers of funds to foreign residents, and net borrowing means the opposite. Net lending or net borrowing can be computed from current- and capital-account transactions or from financialaccount transactions. The two amounts differ by the statistical discrepancy.
Note. Details may not add to totals because of rounding. See International Transactions Accounts table 1.3 at www.bea.gov/itable/international-transactions-services-and-investment-position for geographic detail.

1. Financial transactions on an asset/liability basis are organized according to whether the transactions relate to an asset or a liability. Net U.S. acquisition of direct investment assets relates to U.S. parent and U.S. affiliate acquisition of claims
(assets). Net U.S. incurrence of direct investment liabilities relates to U.S. affiliate and U.S. parent incurrence of liabilities.
2. Financial transactions on a directional basis are organized according to whether the transactions relate to outward investment (U.S. direct investment abroad) or inward investment (foreign direct investment in the United States). Transactions
for outward investment relate to transactions for U.S. parent claims and liabilities. Transactions for inward investment relate to transactions for U.S. affiliate liabilities and claims.
