• Recovery therefore has not come against the backdrop of re-leveraging in any economic sector

• We have increasing confidence that the recovery is robust and that this momentum will continue going

• We are not yet at a point where the recovery of inflation can be self-sustained without our accommodative policy

• As regards bank profitability, ECB research finds little evidence that our monetary policy is currently doing harm

• Economy may be becoming more resilient to new shocks

The current account of the euro area recorded a surplus of €37.8 billion in September 2017. This reflected surpluses for goods (€35.2 billion), primary income (€9.7 billion) and services (€7.3 billion), which were partly offset by a deficit for secondary income (€14.3 billion).

The 12-month cumulated current account for the period ending in September 2017 recorded a surplus of €346.4 billion (3.2% of euro area GDP), compared with one of €359.3 billion (3.4% of euro area GDP) for the 12 months to September 2016. This development was due to a decrease in the surplus for goods (from €377.0 billion to €342.0 billion) and an increase in the deficit for secondary income (from €135.9 billion to €151.1 billion). These were partly offset by increases in the surpluses for primary income (from €69.2 billion to €93.4 billion) and services (from €49.0 billion to €62.0 billion).
