IMF-国际货币基金组织国际收支统计委员会2024年年度报告（英）

IMF COMMITTEE ON BALANCE OF PAYMENTS STATISTICS 2024 ANNUAL REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2024 Annual Report of the IMF Committee on Balance of Payments Statistics (the Committee) provides an overview of recent trends in global balance of payments and international investment position statistics on selected components, particularly cross-border trade, travel, transport, and financial flows. The Report also summarizes the Committee’s work and presents the work program for the coming year. Since the IMF’s Statistics Department (STA) launched an update of the Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual, sixth edition (BPM6) in 2020, the Committee’s work has largely focused on the updates to be incorporated in the Integrated Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual, seventh edition (BPM7), which will be released in March 2025.1 In addition, the Committee and the Advisory Expert Group on National Accounts (AEG) supported a joint implementation strategy for the launch of BPM7/2025 SNA, which aims for a general target date of implementation between 2029 and 2030. The strategy strives for a coordinated approach and a narrow implementation window being also mindful of the varying priorities, technical capabilities, resource limitations, and national circumstances of different countries. Turning to the 2023 balance of payments data, gross cross-border current-account flows continued to rise in 2023, slightly surpassing the levels of 2022, primarily driven by strong services flows. The share of services exports in total exports, which declined during the pandemic (from 25.5 percent in 2019 to 22.6 percent 2021), bounced back to 25.6 percent in 2023. Overall, global trade in goods and services as a percent of GDP has declined to 29.2 percent in 2023, down from the peak of 31 percent in 2022, almost returning to the pre-pandemic levels. The global financial account balance decreased to $367.9 billion in 2023. The net global IIP increased to 5.1 percent of GDP in 2023 almost returning to the historical high of 5.4 percent in 2021. Following the release of the BPM7 white cover version in March 2025, the Committee’s work plan will focus on developing compilation guidance on complex issues, including crypto assets, and advancing its work on addressing global asymmetries. The Committee will also support the implementation of an imputation procedure for the currency composition of the “unallocated” portion of the COFER dataset aimed at providing a full currency breakdown of worldwide reserves. The full set of papers presented at the Committee’s November 2024 meeting is available at https://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/bop/2024/44.htm. 1 The Committee jointly worked with the Advisory Expert Group (AEG) on National Accounts on topics of common interest. Government Finance and Monetary and Financial Statistics compilers as well as users from other Fund Departments have also actively participated in the update process. March
