A surplus of LTL 602.7 million was recorded on the current account balance (CAB) of the country’s Balance of Payments for Q3 2011 as a result of a decrease in deficits on foreign trade and income balances. Net foreign direct investment (FDI) and portfolio investment inflows were registered on the financial account of the balance of payments, but the balance on the financial account was negative (LTL –1.8 billion) as a result of net outflow of other investments and high gains from official reserve assets.

The above data was released by the Statistics Department of the Bank of Lithuania.
