    Current account deficit widens as trade shortfall outpaces invisibles, despite stronger equity inflows supporting BoP stability.
    The current account deficit widened in Q2 July-September 2012 as merchandise exports declined more steeply than imports, increasing the trade deficit; net invisibles-although supported by higher services receipts and moderate remittances-financed a smaller proportion of the trade shortfall because primary and secondary income flows were relatively smaller, raising the CAD to US$ 22.3 billion (about 5.4% of GDP). Financial account inflows improved with stronger FDI and portfolio flows which financed a large share of the CAD, yet reserves recorded a marginal drawdown on a BoP basis.
