The eurozone current account surplus widened to €36.5 billion in July 2026, up from €29.7 billion a year earlier, driven primarily by stronger goods and services balances. The goods surplus rose to €39.8 billion from €31.8 billion, while the services surplus increased to €19.3 billion from €15.1 billion. Partially offsetting the gains, the primary income deficit widened to €4.4 billion from €2.0 billion, while the secondary income deficit increased to €18.1 billion from €15.2 billion. For the first seven months of the year, the current account surplus reached €151.1 billion, up from €131.6 billion over the same period in 2025.
