- Notes
- CBSL Economic and Social Statistics, table 4.11. Balance of payments, BPM5 (2003-2011) and BPM6 (2012-2025) presentations, in both Rs. Mn and USD mn. The USD mn rows already exist as LK.EXT.BOP.* (Data Library, annual 1994-2020) and load here only for the years past 2020, so the BPM5 block contributes no USD mn rows at all (2003-2011 is fully held). The Rs. Mn rows were never held in any currency-comparable form and load for every year the sheet has (2003-2025). Row names carry the BPM edition and, where the sheet has one, the sub-heading (e.g. "Ratio to GDP in percentages"); the Ratio-to-GDP rows are percentages, not a currency amount, and are named/unit-tagged "%" rather than the currency group they sit under. Superseded by LK.EXT.BOP_A.ASSETS_FINANCIAL_ACCOUNT_DIRECT_INVESTMENTS.A, the same measure from CBSL's full BPM6 hierarchy (table2.09/2.10), current where this held copy stops; kept as a mirror.
