Balance of Payments

The balance of payments is a record of all economic transactions between a country and the rest of the world over a period. It includes trade in goods and services, investment flows, remittances, loans, and transfers. Although it is a macroeconomic concept, it is important because it reflects a countryโ€™s financial relationship with the global economy.
