The Island
|October 03, 2025
Sri Lanka’s external sector continued to strengthen in August 2025, as the current account maintained its streak of monthly surpluses.
-
The merchandise trade deficit narrowed in August 2025 compared to August 2024, reflecting a higher growth in exports than imports.
Vehicle imports, including both personal and commercial vehicles, amounted to US dollars 249 million in August 2025, bringing the total vehicle imports of US dollars 918 million in the first eight months of 2025.
The terms of trade deteriorated in August 2025 compared to August 2024, as import prices increased at a faster pace than export prices.
The services sector net inflows increased by 2.3 per cent year-on-year to US dollars 2.7 billion during January-August 2025, despite a modest decline recorded in August 2025 compared to the corresponding period of 2024.
