RIse in German Exports and Bigger Trade surplus in August


October, 10 2017

Exports from Germany surpassed imports in August bringing the gap of the trade surplus wider and reflects the performance of the Europe’s biggest economy where it appears to be robust in the third quarter on Tuesday.


The exports were seasonally adjusted and climbed by 3.1 percent for October while imports got higher by 1.2 percent according to the data from the Federal Statistics Office. This has been the highest growth of exports in twelve months.


Overall, both exports and imports had operated better than anticipated. A poll from Reuters noted that the exports increased by 1.0 percent and imports ascended by 0.5 percent. On the other hand, the seasonally adjusted trade surplus gapped much bigger at 21.6 billion euros or $25.42 billion after adjustment on 19.3 billion euros in July. The reading from August was much elevated than the predicted figure of 20.0 billion euros from Reuters.


The wider account surplus shows the exchange of goods, services, and investment as it dropped to 17.8 billion euros and revised upwards to 19.6 billion euros in July which is not modified.
