Correct Answer: Capital flows


Solution : The correct answer is d) Capital flows.

The current account in the balance of payments records the transactions related to goods, services, income, and unilateral transfers between a country and the rest of the world. It represents the flow of funds resulting from international trade and other economic transactions.

Capital flows are not a component of the current account. Capital flows are recorded in the capital account of the balance of payments. The capital account captures transactions related to capital transfers, such as loans, investments, and acquisitions of assets between residents and non-residents.
