IMF Country Report-Germany: Selected Issues
July 15, 2015--GERMANY'S SUSTAINED CURRENT ACCOUNT
SURPLUS: AN INTERNATIONAL COMPARISON1
1. This paper identifies episodes of large and sustained current account surpluses in advanced economies (AEs) and compares Germany's ongoing surplus with those episodes.
In doing so, it aims to put Germany's external position in a historical and cross-country context drawing from 55 years of data across 20 AEs. This comparison shows that the real growth of all domestic demand components, particularly of private investment, was remarkably weak during the latest sustained surplus episode in Germany in comparison with both "normal times" and other AE surplus episodes. Neither Germany's nor a typical AE surplus episode has been accompanied by
visible, broad-based competitiveness or terms of trade gains; however, when competitiveness is measured by the ULC based REER for the manufacturing sector, a depreciation is in evidence in the
run-up to and early years of Germany’s surplus episode.
