Does the country run a current account deficit or surplus?

    The balance of payments is the record of the economic transactions between a country's population and the rest of the world. International trade can be affected by a nation's balance of payments. In a critical essay, please: • Select a country of your choice (other than Saudi Arabia) and observe the last balance of payments issued by that country. Does the country run a current account deficit or surplus? • What are the driving factors for the deficit or surplus? • What policies should the government implement to improve the external position of the country?
