Euro zone reports about current-account surplus
The euro zone reported about current-account surplus of
0.5 billion euro in September as compared to deficit of 5.9 billion euro in
August, according to ECB. The improvement is essential but may be
unsustainable, said Dominique Barbet, senior economist at BNP Paribas. The surplus
was mainly a result of fall in imports caused by slight decrease in commodity
prices, he added.
