ECONOMYNEXT- Sri Lanka had recorded a surplus in the external current account in the third quarter of 2020 and is expecting a marginal surplus in 2021, Central Bank Governor W D Lakshman said.
“In 2020, a very rare thing has happened although it was still affected by Covid-19,” Governor Lakshman told reporters.
“This rare thing was that we experienced a decline in the current account deficit, and in one of the quarters, I think quarter three, there was a surplus in the current account – very rare thing in Sri Lanka.”
