Answer to Question 1

These two accounts are inversely related: the financial account is the flip side of the current account. When a country runs large deficits in its current account, it is financed by large surpluses in its financial account. In other words, when a country imports more than it exports, it must finance that deficit with a surplus of credits in its financial account.
