Jul 4, 2024, 11:30 PM
South Korea's provisional May current account balance reached a surplus of $8.92 billion, a significant improvement from April's deficit of $0.29 billion, according to the central bank. This marks the highest level since September 2021. The current account surplus for the period from January to May 2024 totaled $25.47 billion, up from $5.03 billion in the same period last year. The gains were driven by exports of chips, smartphones, and cars, as well as dividends reaped by investors from abroad. The surplus of $8.9225 billion is the largest monthly surplus in 32 months.
