    BALANCE OF PAYMENT

    The balance of payments of a country isa systematic record of all economic

    transaction between residents of that

    country and the rest of the world during

    a given period of time.

    To spot whether it is becoming more

    difficult for debtor countries to repay

    foreign creditors, one needs a set of

    accounts that shows the accumulation of

    debts, the repayment of interest and

    principal, and the countrys ability to

    earn foreign exchange for futurerepayment.

    Balance of Payments is a systematic andsummary record of a countrys economicand financial transactions with the restof the world over a period of time.

    (a) Transactions in good and servicesand income between an economy andthe rest of the world,(b)Changes of ownership and otherchanges in that countrys monetary gold,

    SDRs, and claims on and liabilities to therest of the world, and(c) Unrequited transfers and counterpart

    entries that are needed to balance, inthe accounting sense, any entries for theforegoing transactions and changeswhich are not mutually offsetting.

    Nature of Balance of Payments AccountingThe transactions that fall under Balanceof Payments are recorded in thestandard double-entry book-keepingform,under which each internationaltransaction undertaken by the countryresults in a credit entry and a debitentry of equal size,as the international

    transactions are recorded in the double-entry book-keeping form, the balance ofpayments must always balance, i.e., thetotal amount of debits must equal thetotal amount of credits. Sometimes, thebalancing item, error and omissions,must be added to balance the balance ofpayments.

    Components of Balance of PaymentsBalance of Payments is generallygrouped under the following heads

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    5/26

    i) Current Accountii) Capital Accountiii) Unilateral Payments Account

    iv) Official Settlement Account.

    Current Account

    The Current Account includes alltransactions which give rise to or use upnational income.

    The Current Account consists of twomajor items, namely:i) Merchandise exports and imports, andii) Invisible exports and imports.Merchandise exports, i.e., the sale ofgoods abroad, are credit entries becauseall transactions giving rise to monetary

    claims on foreigners represent credits.On the other hand, merchandise imports,i.e., purchase of goods from abroad, aredebit entries because all transactionsgiving rise to foreign money claims onthe home country represent debits.Merchandise imports and exports formthe most important internationaltransaction of most of the countries.Invisible exports, i.e., sales of services,are credit entries and invisible imports,

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    6/26

    i.e. purchases of services, are debitentries.Important invisible exports include the

    sale abroad of such services astransport, insurance, etc., foreign touristexpenditure abroad and income paid onloans and investments (by foreigners) inthe home country form the importantinvisible entries on the debit side.

    Capital AccountThe Capital Account consists of short-terms and long-term capital transactionsA capital outflow represents a debit anda capital inflow represents a credit. Forinstance, if an American firm investsRs.100 million in India, this transactionwill be represented as a debit in the USbalance of payments and a credit in thebalance of payments of India.The payment of interest on loans anddividend payments are recorded in theCurrent Account, since they are really

    payments for the services of capital. Ashas already been mentioned above, theinterest paid on loans given byforeigners of dividend on foreigninvestments in the home country are

    7/26

    debits for the home country, while, onthe other hand, the interestreceived on loans given abroad and

    dividends on investments abroad arecredits.

    Un ilateral Transfers AccountUnilateral transfers is another terms forgifts. These unilateral transfers includeprivate remittances, government grants,disaster relief, etc.Unilateral payments received fromabroad are credits and those madeabroad are debits.

    Official Settlements AccountsOfficial reserves represent the holdingsby the government or official agencies of

    the means of payment that are generallyaccepted for the settlement ofinternational claims.

    Balance of Payments DisequilibirumThe balance of payments of a country issaid to be in equilibrium when thedemand for foreign exchange is exactlyequivalent to the supply of it. Thebalance of payments is in disequilibriumwhen there is either a surplus or adeficit in the balance of payments. Whenthere is a deficit in the balance ofpayments, the demand for foreignexchange exceeds the demand for it.A number of factors may causedisequilibrium in the balance of

    payments. These various causes may bebroadly categorized into:(i) Economic factors ;(ii) Political factors; and(iii) Sociological factors.

    Economic Factors

    A number of economic factors may causedisequilibrium in the balance ofpayments. These are:

    Development Disequilibrium

    Large-scale development expendituresusually increase the

    purchasing power, aggregate demand andprices, resulting insubstantially large imports. The developmentdisequilibrium is common in developingcountries, because the above factors, andlarge-scale capital goods imports needed forcarrying out the various developmentprogrammes, give rise to a deficit in thebalance of payments.

    Capital DisequilibriumCyclical fluctuations in general businessactivity are one of the prominent reasons forthe balance of payments disequilibrium.As Lawrance W. Towle points out, depression

    always bringsabout a drastic shrinkage in world trade,while prosperity stimulates it. A countryenjoying a boom all by itselt ordinarilyexperiences more rapid growth in its importsthan its exports, while the opposite is true of

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    12/26

    other countries. But production in the othercountries will be activated as a result of theincreased exports to the boom country.

    Secular DisequilibriumSometimes, the balance of paymentsdiequilibrium persists for a long timebecause of certain secular trends in theeconomy.For instance, in a developed country, thedisposable income isgenerally very high and,

    therefore, the aggregate demand, too, isvery high. At the same time, production costsare very high because of the higher wages.This naturally results in higher prices. Thesetwo factors high aggregate demand andhigher domestic prices may result in theimports being much higher than the exports.

    This could be one of the reasons for thepersistent balance of payments deficits ofthe USA.

    Structural Disequilibrium

    Structual changes in the economy may alsocause balance ofpayments disequilibrium. Such structuralchanges include the development ofalternative sources of supply, thedevelopment of better substitutes, the

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    13/26

    exhaustion of productive resources, thechanges in transport routes and costs, etc.

    Political FactorsCertain political factors may also produce abalance of payments disequilibrium. Forinstance, a country plagued with politicalinstability may experience large capitaloutflows, inadequacy of domestic investmentand production, etc. These factors may,sometimes, cause disequilibrium in thebalance of payments. Further, factors likewar, changes in world trade routes, etc., mayalso produce balance of paymentsdifficulties.

    Social FactorsCertain social factors influence the balance of

    payments. Forinstance, changes in tastes, preferences,fashions, etc. may affect imports and exportsand thereby affect the balance of payments.

    Exports of goods increased by 21 % during 2006-07compared to 23 % in 2005-06. Exports grew mainly onaccount of tea, spices, engineering and petro goods.

    Imports growth at 22 per cent in 2006-07 (32 per cent in2005-06). Imports grew mainly on account of non-oil importsand not oil-imports as it has generally been the case.

    Non-oil imports increased by 25% in 2006-07 (21.8% in2005-06). The major non-oil import items were capital goods,metalliferrous ores, metal scrap and gold and silver.

    Crude oil imports during 2006-07 recorded somemoderation in growth at 30.4 % (47.3 % in 2005-06). The

    slowdown in oil imports was largely because of a moderationin crude oil prices. The average price of the Indian basket ofinternational crude (a mix of Dubai and Brent varieties)stood at $ 62.4 per barrel during 2006-07 as compared withUS $ 55.4 per barrel during 2005-06. This implies that theprices increased by 13% in 2006-07 much lower than 42%increase seen in 2005-06. In volume terms, the oil importdemand rose to 13% in 2006-07 from 8 % in 2005-06,

    tracking the growth in industrial sector.The service exports increased by 37% in 06-07 compared

    to 68% in 05-06. Software exports increased by 29% on 06-07 compared to 35% in 05-06.

    Capital account:

    FDI has a larger share in foreign investments than FII, atrend last seen in 2002-03. Outward FDI and FII have also

    grown sharply at 273% and 85%, showing Indians appetitefor investing abroad is increasing.

    External Commercial Borrowings have grown at ashocking rate of 491% this year and are now at about USD

    16 billion. That is why RBI revised the rates corporate canpay for ECB.

    The total capital flows have increased by 92% and despite

    the increasing current account deficit, we have a huge BoPsurplus at USD 36.6 billion, an increase of 143%.THE CURRENT DEFICIT

    The current account for Q1 2008-09 was noted at a deficit of$10.7 bn. This is the highest quarterly current accountdeficit (CAD) since the quarterly figures have been available(Q1 1990). The 1991 crisis was a result of the inability tofinance the CAD. So, is the current CAD a cause of concern?

    Current account shows the external trade position of aneconomy. It comprises two sub-accounts export/import ofgoods and export/import of invisibles. Invisibles includeservices, remittances and investment income. The goods

    imports have always been more than exports, resulting intrade deficit.

    Recently, goods imports have surged mainly due to high oilprices. The widening trade deficit so far has been negated bya surge in revenue from services inflows (software). If theservice inflows are less than trade deficit we get CAD, whichin turn is financed by capital inflows (FDI, FII, etc) from

    abroad (vice-versa for current account surplus).

    In Q1 2008-09, the trade deficit was $31.6 bn and the netservice inflows was positive $20.9 bn, implying a CAD of10.7 bn. Capital inflows were $12.9 bn leading to an overall

    19/26

    surplus of $2.2 bn.

    The concern is not having a deficit, but financing it. In India,a widening CAD has so far been financed by buoyant capitalflows. But things are expected to change looking at thecurrent global crisis. First, pressure on oil prices is likely tocontinue as emerging economies expand further.

    Second, software exports are likely to decline trackingcollapses of several foreign financial firms. The Indiansoftware industry derives majority of its revenues from

    foreign financial sector and latter is clearly contracting.

    Third, with a global slowdown the capital inflows are alsoexpected to decline Fourth, the goods exports are alsoexpected to decline, as demand in other economies contracts.

    In all, CAD levels are expected to decline but the deficit is

    likely to continue. The silver lining is the ample forexreserves held by the RBI. Those would help India finance itsoil bills and manage the global slowdown.

    A combined effect of rapid economic growth, importliberalisation and rising oil prices in 2007-08 has been abalance of trade deficit expanding to $80 bn. This year itmay expand further to $100 bn. Although services andinvisibles have been helping in moderating the currentaccount deficit, it is beginning to look worrisome as servicesexport growth is also tapering off.

    Current account deficit helps India absorb foreign savings.

    20/26

    As long as current account deficit is bridged through capitalinflows such as foreign direct investments (FDI), it should befine as it leads to addition of capital stock.

    However, we have to be cautious while bridging this deficitwith short-term capital flows or borrowing huge amounts ininternational ,as they can bring instability or push us into adebt trap.

    PROPOSED SOLUTION :-

    In the medium and long run we need to strengthen andexpand the base of Indian exports so that we have a moresustainable balance of payments situation. India shouldconsolidate her presence in traditional export industries suchas textiles, clothing, leather goods, gems and jewellery,Agricultural and horticultural products.

    With our labour cost advantage eroding over time, the

    competitiveness will have to be sustained by internalising thefull value chainWhile consolidating Indian advances in genericpharmaceuticals, small cars, two wheelers, and metals, weneed to develop new industries leveraging our large andexpanding market to containing imports and for newavenues for exports.

    A domestic mobile handset production base has been builtbut what about a large personal computer manufacturingbase especially in view of our skills base and softwarecapabilities? A Nano type innovation could help indeveloping a major industry.

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    21/26

    We should also seek to develop new scale-intensive, export-oriented industries such as aerospace, ship building andmultiply power and telecom equipment producers. The timehas come for giving a new thrust to industrialisation togenerate exports and substitute imports for a moresustainable BoP while generating output and jobs formillions

    Our view is:

    Current Account deficit has widened by only 5% in 06-07compared to 70% in 05-06 and is at about 1% of GDP. Asthe Rupee has been appreciating (it is now in the 41 Rs= 1$compared to 43.5-44 range till March 31, 2007) the tradebalance should worsen (as imports get cheaper and exportsexpensive). It is already happening as per the latest pressrelease, imports have been rising and exports slowing.

    So it would all depend on how much RBI intervenes in Forexmarkets. If it doesnt given the high capital flows, thecurrency would appreciate. But then India has a currentaccount deficit and the currency should depreciate!! If RBIlets the exchange rate to markets it would be interesting tosee the rupee level ahead.

    Another problem is with high investments needed in

    infrastructure we would need extra foreign capital, ascurrently investments are more than available savings (asper latest CSO estimates, Savings is 35% of GDP andInvestments 37% of GDP) . That means more investmentsand which means more current account deficit. So, it is a bitof a mixed story and lets see how things move ahead.

    EFFEECTS OF RECENT ECONOMIC CRISIS

    ON BALANCE OF PAYMENT

    Indias balance of payment fell by close t

    o$10 billion during the week ended

    10thOctober 20, 2008,a record fall mainly due

    to heavy dollar sales by the central bank to

    stem the fall in the value of the local

    currency.

    According to data released by the Reserve

    Bank Of India, the total foreign exchange

    reserve, including gold and SDR, dipped to $

    274 billion during the week ended October 10

    from $291.9 at the end of September. This is

    the third straight week that the Forex

    stockpile has fallen with the slide in the past

    two weeks being specially severe.

    The past fortnight also marked the period

    when foreign portfolio investors sold stocks

    in droves, forcing the central bank to sell

    dollars to pour up the rupee.

    India- the fourth largest holder of foreign

    exchange reserves in Asia after China ,Japan

    and Taiwan-has seen reserves sliding since

    the start of the fiscal. Starting from end

    march the Forex stockpile has shrunk by

  • 8/14/2019 18167053 Balance of Payment

    23/26

    close to $35 billion, forcing policymakers to

    recently unveil measures to boost inflows like

    a higher investment limit for FIIs in corporate

    debt and also allowing banks to offer higherrates on deposits for non-resident Indians.

    The scenario now is in stark contrast to the

    same period a year ago, when reserves rose

    by $57 billion. India is not alone on this

    count. Other emerging Asian economies, too,

    have been scarred.STATEMENT 2 : INDIA'S OVERALL BALANCE OF PAYMENTS
