There have been on-going debates on how current account is adjusted since persistent external deficit is a crucial issue, particularly in developing economies. By decomposing current account balance into its three components over 171 countries during the period of 1980-2010, this study empirically examines Friedman s (1953) argument suggesting that exchange rate flexibility advances current account adjustment.
