So......talking points
• persistent trade deficit: why haven’t goods exports picked up?
• deterioration in the UK net income account
• increasing deficit in UK's net international investment position
..........does this signal sustainability issues?
..........how concerned should we be?

Sterling Exchange Rate
Sterling depreciated by around 25% between 2007 and 2009, but over the last year, the currency has been appreciating in trade-weighted terms.
The recent strength of the pound may have reduced the competitiveness of our exports – but as the depreciation appears to have had at most a relatively modest impact on our trading position, the importance of this effect is unclear.
The integration of global supply chains may be more important.
![Page 15: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The trade balance varies by good/service
Trade in Services: Exports, imports & balance Trade in Goods: Exports, imports & balance
• Record trade surplus on services, offsetting trade deficit on goods• But balance reflects the difference between two much larger numbers: the values of exports and imports
![Page 16: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
UK trade - Exports
• Recent strength of services is partly due to lower imports, but also because of a resilient export performance
• Much of the weakness of aggregate UK exports is attributable to exports of goods.
![Page 17: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Which region/country is driving the weakness in goods exports?
![Page 18: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Goods exports to EU and non-EUCP (£ billion)
• Much of the weakness in goods exports is explained through weakness in goods exports to the EU.
• Between Q2 2011 and Q3 2014, goods exports to the EU have fallen 14%.
• Goods exports to non-EU countries follow a similar profile, but are at their early 2011 level in the most recent data
![Page 19: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
EU balances – Goods and Services
• UK Trade in Goods and Services with EU involves some bilateral surpluses (Ireland and Netherlands) and some deficits.
• The most substantial bilateral deficit within the EU is with Germany...
![Page 20: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Goods & Services exports to the non-EU
• Exports to the US have stabilised as a fraction of total non-EU exports in recent quarters, in contrast to the varying performance of some of our high-profile trading partners
![Page 22: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Exports of services
• Services exports dominated by financial services and other business services
• Smaller, but considerable contributions from Insurance, Transport and travel services
• Services export resilience and lower imports resulted in services surplus of 5.1% of GDP in Q3 2014
![Page 26: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Exports of Goods by type
• Exports of goods are dominated by semi-manufactures and finished manufactures
• Fuels and Food, beverages & Tobacco also make contributions, but the majority of the recent slowdown (since 2011) is in semi-manufactures
• After growing strongly in 2009 and 2010, Finished manufactures export growth has slowed considerably
![Page 27: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Export Market Growth
• While UK export performance has been weak overall, it is not out of line with the growth of our key export markets.
• Chart shows import growth in our top 20 non-EU and 28 EU trading partners, weighted by their importance to UK exports, as well as growth in the volume of UK exports
• It shows that UK export volume growth is broadly in line with the growth of our most important trading partners
![Page 30: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Conclusions
• Balance on trade has contributed to the recent increase in the current account deficit, although it has played a smaller role than in previous deficit episodes
• Record surplus on services trade offsets to some extent a persistent deficit on goods.
• Main drivers of recent developments in services exports are financial and other business services.
• Main drivers of recent developments for semi-manufactures are Medical and Pharmaceutical products
• Growth of exports broadly in line with growth of export markets, but does not show the kind of growth we would expect given depreciation.

Outward FDI
• Parent bank in UK • Subsidiary bank in France• Income credits reflect the proportion of profit
made by the French subsidiary attributable to the UK parent
• Losses are treated as negative income credits
• So profits of non-resident branches and subsidiaries have a positive impact on the UK’s current account, while losses of these UK branches and subsidiaries have a negative impact on the UK’s current account
• Non-resident subsidiaries and branches of UK MFIs are more focused on retail banking than investment banking

What is the change?
• Measurement changes from an All Inclusive (AI) to a Current Operating Performance (COP) basis
• This means we exclude holding gains and losses, which are calculated as dealing profits less net spread earnings, plus exceptional items less provisions for bad and doubtful debts are excluded

Why change?
• Long standing debate over preferred method
• Ease of comparison with other countries
• Consistency with the National Accounts
• Ensures consistency with other sectors in the accounts

Why is this important?
GDP per capita and Gross National Income (GNI) per capita
The difference between GNI and GDP can be used to assess the net benefit to UK residents of international investment flows with the rest of the world
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of a country’s overall economic output (which includes output and activity from both residents and non-residents within the country)
Gross national income (GNI) is the sum of value added by all producers who are residents in a country, plus income received from abroad such as employee compensation and property income
Hence a greater value of GNI over GDP is interpreted as a net benefit to the UK economy as it’s shows the economic strength of its citizens
![Page 78: BOP Slides (Powerpoint presentation 11057Kb)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081605/58807f6e1a28aba8108bc280/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Why is this important?
GDP per capita and Gross National Income (GNI) per capita
•Gross National Income excludes net property income from GDP, only showing the income available to UK residents.
•Stiglitz report highlights that this may be a better measure of wellbeing compared to UK GDP.
•GNI growth has recently lagged behind GDP growth, reversing the trend seen in the previous decade.

Why is this important?•Running a current account deficit means that the ‘rest of the world’ is lending to the UK economy.
•Lending and borrowing in all headline UK sectors must equal zero.
•At the moment, government borrowing is offsetting lending in the rest of the world sector.
Sector net lending (+) / borrowing (-), % of nominal GDP

Why is this important?
Financial stability
•Large level of assets and liabilities relative to UK GDP
•Greater sensitivity to exchange rates and equity price differentials (and divergences in performance between countries – e.g. current position).
•Hence, changes to the value of these assets and liabilities could start to affect the current account, and the difference between GNI and GDP to a greater degree.
•Interest rate risk

Case study: Icelandic banking crisisIceland international investment position: Iceland assets and liabilities (% nominal GDP)
Iceland net international investment position (% nominal GDP)
•Following the expansion by the banks in 2003, Iceland’s IIP a % of GDP increased rapidly for both assets and liabilities.
•However, Iceland’s NIIP (% of GDP) shows the growth of liabilities consistently surpassed that of assets over the period.

The driver of the large negative NIIP as a % of GDP has been the growth in Portfolio investment (inc. debt securities and equities) and other investment.
