Bras\u00edlia \u2013 The balance between the flow of dollars entering and exiting Brazil (the exchange flow) last week resulted in a deficit of US$ 1.391 billion, according to figures disclosed today (18) by the Central Bank of Brazil. However, with the positive result of the first week of February (US$ 1.917 billion), the partial balance for the month, up to the 12th, is US$ 526 million positive. The result for the first two weeks of February is lower, though, than in the same period last year, when it totalled US$ 1.026 billion.<\/p>\n
In the accumulated result from January to last Friday (12), the result is US$ 1.6 billion positive, against a negative balance of US$ 1.992 billion in the same period last year.<\/p>\n
In the two weeks of February, the financial balance (investment in papers, transfer abroad of profits and dividends and foreign direct investment, among other operations) was US$ 2.187 positive. The trade balance, which covers export, import and financing to the sector, however, had a negative result of US$ 1.661 billion.<\/p>\n
From January to the second week of this month, the financial flow was US$ 3.401 billion and the trade flow was US$ 1.801 billion negative.<\/p>\n
The Central Bank of Brazil also informed that purchases of dollars on the spot market raised international reserves by US$ 257 million in the first two weeks of February this year. In January, the result was US$ 1.709 billion.<\/p>\n
