Source: Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)

The Central Intelligence Agency often reports interesting tidbits in their online publication, The World Factbook. A reader sent me a link pointing towards the “current account balance” of all the countries in the world. The entry records a country’s net trade in goods and services, plus net earnings from rents, interest, profits, and dividends, and net transfer payments (such as pension funds and worker remittances) to and from the rest of the world during the period specified.

Guess who is in the lead? And guess who it towards the bottom?

China leads the world by a long shot, with Greece, Portugal and other EU countries such as France bringing up the tail-end (hence, the austerity measures, riots, etc). Of course, as we all guessed it; the United States is in dead last place with a total account deficit of around $561 Billion. And these are the 2010 figures. At this rate, we will soon be into the trillions, if not already. Depending on what part of 2010 these figures are from, it could be close to 18 months old.
