Overview
Kyrgyz Republic's current account balance stood at -8.38% in 2025, a rise of +16.92% from 2024. The IMF projects -8.38% by 2025. Kyrgyz Republic ranked 161st globally.
Kyrgyzstan’s current‑account balance has swung markedly over the 34‑year record, moving from a deficit of ‑5.75 percent of GDP in 1992 to a modest surplus of 4.53 percent in 2020, before plunging to an all‑time trough of ‑44.92 percent in 2023. The latest figure for 2025 shows a deficit of ‑8.38 percent, placing the country 161st globally and aligning it closely with peers such as Senegal (‑8.03) and Cyprus (‑8.46). The 2020 peak reflected a brief export‑driven upswing and restrained import growth, while the 2023 trough coincided with a sharp decline in commodity prices and heightened external debt servicing. The subsequent moderation to ‑8.38 percent suggests a partial recovery, driven by modest export gains and limited fiscal tightening. Continued diversification of export markets and improved terms of trade will be essential to shift the balance back into surplus and sustain a more positive trajectory.
