Text informa�on
In Q2 2020, Hungary’s seasonally adjusted net borrowing (i.e. the combined deficit on its current and capital accounts) amounted to EUR 146.2 million, equal to 0.5 % of quarterly GDP. The unadjusted value reached EUR 190.1 million. The seasonally adjusted current account deficit is EUR 864.4 million, while the unadjusted value reached EUR 847.2 million. The �me series of the capital account does not contain seasonality, its balance is EUR 657.0 million. Hungary’s net foreign debt, excluding FDI debt instruments, amounted to EUR 11.3 billion at the end of June 2020 (8.2 % as a percentage of GDP in the last four quarters). The net external debt increased by 2.1 EUR billion compared to the previous quarter.The Central Bank’s reserve assets amounted to EUR 30.2 billion at the end of June 2020. In the second quarter, the level of the reserves increased by 4.4 EUR billion compared to the previous quarter.
Summary data
Net lending (CA+KA)
In Q2 2020 the components of net borrowing were significantly nega�vely affected by the spread of Covid-19: the level of exports and imports and the surplus of services fell significantly compared to the level of the previous quarter. Exports amounted to EUR 17.8 billion, imports to EUR 18.8 billion, and a trade deficit to 984.6 million in the second quarter, seasonally adjusted. The surplus of services decreased significantly, with travel reaching EUR 137.3 million and non-travel services reaching EUR 440.7 million. The deficit of primary income was 336.5 and that of secondary income was 381.2 million euros, seasonally adjusted.The �me series of the capital account does not contain seasonality, so the seasonally adjusted figure is the same as the unadjusted figure, with a value of EUR 657.0 million in the second quarter. The bulk of the capital account comes from capital transfers from the EU.
In this publica�on, the 2020. II. quarterly balance of payments and related stock sta�s�cs are published first with revisions for 2017, 2018, the four quarters of 2019 and Q1 2020.

(By 2020, the es�mate has been updated taking into account new factual data.)Within posi�ons, we publish for the first �me the FDI posi�ons based on annual corporate reports with its immediate country and ac�vity breakdown for 2019, and the inward FDI posi�ons by the ul�mate inves�ng economy for 2018.
By resident sectorsIn Q2 2020, financial account balance showed a decrease of EUR 1,018 million in net assets.

Balance of payments and Interna�onal Investment Posi�on - 2020 Q2
Text informa�on
Net inflows of direct investments in the second quarter of 2020 increased by 269 million euros: FDI abroad increased by 470 million euros, while FDI in Hungary increased by 739 million euros. Capital in transit and asset por�olio restructuring in the second quarter reduced the value of investments in both investment direc�ons (capital withdrawal) by EUR 209 million.
Within FDI abroad, investments in equity increased the value of foreign investments by EUR 841 million, and reinvested earnings by EUR 129 million. Debt instruments showed a net decrease in claims of EUR 500 million.
In the case of FDI in Hungary, investments in shares and other equity decreased by EUR 1,099 million, reinvested earnings by EUR 367 million, while debt instruments increased the value of foreigners' investments by EUR 2,205 million.
In Q2 2020, the net IIP was EUR -64.7 billion: total assets amounted to EUR 140.3 billion and total liabili�es to EUR 205.1 billion. Compared to the end of the previous quarter, the level of assets increased by EUR 1.1 billion and that of liabili�es increased by EUR 2.8 billion.
Interna�onal investments posi�ons
Revisions
Data revisions are based on modified reports of companies, furthermore on the replacement of es�mates by reported data (income and stock of FDI) and on the data revision in the basic sta�s�cs taken over from HCSO (goods and services, compensa�on of employees and workers’ remi�ances).
For 2019, within primary income, direct investment income on equity in Hungary was EUR 1,190 million lower than previously es�mated, while the direct investment income on equity abroad was EUR 169 million higher than es�mated. The lower-than-es�mated profit appears in the financial account as a lower capital investment due to the reinvestment of earnings beside the lower income on equity in the current account. Based on these new fact data the es�mate of income on equity for 2020 has also declined.
The changes in trade in goods and services in 2017 were mainly due to the integra�on of input/output tables related to na�onal accounts, diminishing the current account balance by EUR 495 million. For 2018-2019. and for the first quarter of 2020, trade and services data were revised also in accordance with the HCSO's na�onal accounts sta�s�cs, for 2019 it is resulted lower balance for goods and services by EUR 730 million.

In these interac�ve graphs, Hungary’s balance of payments and interna�onal investment posi�on are presented excluding data on special purpose en��es (SPEs), consistent with past prac�ce. However, Hungary’s BOP and IIP both excluding and including SPE data are available on the MNB’s website.
Regarding the applied tool for seasonal adjustment, the MNB together with the HCSO, has switched from Demetra to JDemetra+ as the new standard so�ware for seasonal adjustment star�ng from the first publica�on of seasonally adjusted data for January 2017 and Q1 2017. JDemetra+ is the officially recommended so�ware for seasonal adjustment of official sta�s�cs within the European System of Central Banks and the European Sta�s�cal System, in producing seasonally adjusted data. As a member of the European System of Central Banks, one of the key objec�ves of the MNB is to produce seasonally adjusted data of the best possible quality, which are comparable to those produced and published by other Member States. The so�ware change does not influence the applicability, interpreta�on and the dissemina�on of seasonally adjusted data; TRAMO/SEATS will con�nue to be the seasonal adjustment method used. However, due to the many new sta�s�cal tests and diagnos�cs built into the new programme, we can provide higher quality seasonally adjusted data to users.
Seasonally adjusted balance �me series are directly adjusted. Thus, seasonally adjusted balances cannot be reproduced from the seasonally adjusted credits and debits. The same applies to the aggregates. The seasonally adjusted aggregates cannot be reproduced from the seasonally adjusted subaccounts either (e.g. the seasonally adjusted current account balance does not equal to the sum of the seasonally adjusted data of the subaccounts).
