Seasonal adjustment
The seasonally adjusted current balance series presented in US dollars is obtained by converting the seasonally adjusted monthly and quarterly figures expressed in national currency using respectively the monthly and quarterly average exchange rates. The annual figures are obtained by converting annual raw figures in national currency using the annual average exchange rate. It should be noted that the sum of the monthly (quarterly) figures does not necessarily equal the corresponding quarterly (annual) figure due to fluctuations in the exchange rate.
