The excess foreign trade balance was offset by the growing income balance deficit; therefore, in March 2013, despite a one-third decrease, the current account balance (CAB) recorded a deficit. The positive value (LTL 340.7 million) of the balance of payments financial account balance in March 2013 was received due to the significantly declining official reserve assets.
The above data was released by the Statistics Department of the Bank of Lithuania.
