Poland's C/A balance in liquid years down to minus 1.0 pct of GDP in May - MinFin
Poland’s current account balance on a liquid year basis declined in May 2025 to minus 1.0 percent of GDP, the Ministry of Finance reported.
"According to preliminary data, the current account deficit in May 2025 increased to 1.0 percent of GDP on a rolling annual basis. For over a year, the annual growth rate of imports has been higher than that of exports, but the scale of this difference has narrowed significantly," the report states.
According to the Ministry of Finance, the downward trend in exports of durable consumer goods continued, but foreign sales in the automotive industry increased, thanks in part to higher exports of buses and car parts. Imports were supported by arms deliveries.
The capital account surplus amounted to 0.5 percent of GDP, increasing the negative loan/debt ratio to minus 0.5 percent of GDP.
