What is Balance on Services?
The balance on services covers cross-border services trade — tourism, transport, financial services, royalties, business services, and IT services. It is the services-only counterpart to the balance on goods.
Why it matters for FX
Services balances are structurally larger and more positive in advanced economies (notably the UK, US, France) than goods balances. They smooth the headline current account and can explain why countries with persistent goods deficits (UK, US) still attract structural capital inflows.
How to read this page
