Indonesia posts first current account surplus since 2011 in Q3 (Corrects paragraph 1 milestone to third quarter, not fourth) JAKARTA, Nov 20 (Reuters) – Indonesia recorded a $1 billion current account surplus in the July-September period, its first surplus since the third quarter of 2011, as movement curbs to control the coronavirus pandemic suppressed imports, Bank Indonesia said on Friday.The third-quarter current account surplus was equal to 0.4% of gross domestic product (GDP), and followed a deficit of 1.2% of GDP in the previous three months, the central bank said in a statement.Southeast Asia’s largest economy also recorded a surplus in its capital and financial accounts in the third quarter, bringing the balance of payments to a $2.1 billion surplus.The balance of payments’ surplus in April-June was $9.2 billion.(Reporting by Tabita Diela; Editing by Muralikumar Anantharaman) First Published: 2020-11-20 06:25:01 Updated 2020-11-20 06:35:47
