When exports are higher than the country's import, then it is Trade deficit

  • Trade deficit is the situation where a country's export is higher than its import.
  • This happens  when the country relies more on foreign goods and exports a very less amount of its own goods.
  • It can be taken as a short term and long term trade deficit.
  • In short term deficit, it actually becomes advantageous for the country. They could consume more goods from the foreign countries and reduce their domestic production.
  • But in the long term, it will be a great disaster for the country. When a country keeps on borrowing goods from its exports, it lead to a high payment problem.
  • Trade deficit is beneficial only for those countries whose economic situation is unstable and facing a crisis.
  • But countries with good growth potential facing a trade deficit may lead them to a Balance of Payment crisis.

Overall, the economic situation can not be predicted during uncertainties. There should be a control line upon which decision should be taken.
