	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2015 answer text <p>The current account deficit was 5.1 per cent of GDP in 2014. The trade balance has been broadly stable, while the UK’s net investment income has fallen, as weakness in the euro area has depressed the returns on the UK’s holding of foreign direct investment. Figures for Q2 2015 show that the deficit has narrowed, driven by an improvement in the trade and investment income balances. The Office for Budget Responsibility forecasts a narrowing of the current account deficit over the forecast period.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Neill of Gatley question first answered 18/11/2015 16:41:06 answering member 4536 label Biography information for Lord O'Neill of Gatley
