Malaysia’s Current Account Balance (CAB) in the fourth quarter of 2024 recorded a surplus of RM11.4 billion, mainly supported by net exports of Goods and lower deficit in Services. Meanwhile, Financial Account registered a lower net outflow of RM5.8 billion as compared to RM7.5 billion in the previous quarter, mainly driven by outflows in Portfolio investment. The International reserves stood at RM520.1 billion (as at end of Q3 2024: RM491.5 billion).
