4. Imports & exports (2015)

5. Imports & exports
With the term import we intend all goods (Visible imports) or services (Invisible imports) that a country buys from a
foreign country while with the term export we intend all goods (Visible exports) or services (Invisible exports) that a
country sells to a foreign country. Italy in 2015 imported vehicles, gas, medicine, oil, clothing and exported machinery,
medicines, pasta, paper and clothing. In the considered year the value of imports was 32062.06 (milion) of euros while
the value of exports was 36874.13 (milion) of euros so we can say that in 2015 the balance of trade was positive.

6. B.O.T (Balance Of Trade)

7. Italian Balance of trade
The Balance of Trade is the difference in value between a country’s visible exports and
visible imports over a year. If the visible exports value exceeds the visible imports value,
the Balance of Trade is said to be favourable or in surplus. If the visible imports value
exceeds the visible exports, then the Balance of Trade is said to be unfavourable or in
deficit.
°In 2014 Italian Balance of Trade was in deficit, visible
imports were 0,4% higher than visible exports.
°In 2015 Italian Balance of Trade improved,
visible exports were 0,8% higher than visible
imports

8. B.O.P (Balance Of Payments)

9. The Balance of Payments (BOP) records all monetary transactions between a country and the rest of the
world.
For a healthy economy,a country should aim at having a favourable Balance of
Payments.
A persistent deficit in the Balance of Payments may oblige a country to take
money from its official reserves of foreign currency, or to sell gold reserves, or
to borrow money from international organization.
