Australia’s current account deficit expanded in the fourth quarter of 2025, with the balance slipping to -21.1 billion dollars, according to data updated on 3 March 2026. The latest figure marks a deterioration from the previous quarter, when the current account stood at -16.6 billion dollars in the third quarter of 2025.

The widening deficit in Q4 2025 signals mounting external imbalances compared with earlier in the year, underscoring a notable shift in Australia’s external position over the second half of 2025. While the data release does not specify the underlying drivers, the larger shortfall highlights growing pressure on the country’s balance with the rest of the world as the year came to a close. Investors and policymakers are likely to monitor subsequent releases closely to assess whether this trend persists into 2026.
