Turkey's current account deficit has widened by $4.4 billion, year-on-year, to reach nearly $7.1 billion in January, Turkish Central Bank said on Monday.
According to the bank's report on balance of payments, the country's 12-month rolling deficit stood at nearly $51.6 billion in January.
"This development in the current account is mainly attributable to $4.54 billion increase in the goods deficit recording net outflow of $7.63 billion, as well as $82 million increase in primary income deficit to $479 million," the bank said.
