KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's current account balance is expected to remain in surplus of between 1.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2025, said Bank Negara Malaysia governor Datuk Seri Abdul Rasheed Ghaffour today.
This follows a smaller current account surplus of RM300 million, or one per cent of GDP, recorded in the second quarter of 2025 (2Q 2025), mainly due to cyclical factors such as planned maintenance that disrupted commodity production.
