The remaining years, albeit showing fluctuations, the nation generated a trade surplus (positive trade balance). In addition to a stable trade balance, Brazil is the country with the highest gross domestic product in Latin America and the Caribbean, further demonstrating its economic strength.

While the value of exported goods is remarkably high, the value of imported goods is even higher: In 2014, Brazil imported goods with a value of around 240 billion U.S. dollars. As a result of the higher value of imported goods, the nation experienced a trade deficit in 2013 for the first time after a decade of trade surplus; the deficit got even more pronounced in 2014, figures for the next few years are yet to be published.

Concept: Balance on goods accounts transactions on items that are result of productive activities. Goods are physical, produced items over which ownership rights can be established and whose economic ownership can be passed from one institutional unit to another by engaging in transactions. The Balance on goods is divided in exports and imports. The exports registers the selling of goods from residents to nonresidents and the imports registers the purchases of goods by residents from nonresidents. The trade balance is compiled by the Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (MDIC) based on custom records of the Integrated Foreign Trade System (Siscomex), and are adjusted by the Central Bank with the goal of an ampler coverage. Information published by the MDIC are therefore incorporated to electric energy purchases that are not registered on Siscomex. Additionally, exports and imports are adjusted by the inclusion of operations in which the product is traded with a nonresident but doesn’t cross the border of the original country. Lastly, the trade balance incorporates international postal delivery registration.
