Abstract
In the January Review discussion of the US current account imbalances, we explored the links between the US current account deficit and exchange rates, and focused on the economic adjustments required to correct the US 'triple' deficits. Using NiGEM, we illustrated that a sustained adjustment in the US current account deficit cannot be achieved through a temporary nominal depreciation alone – whether risk or policy driven – but also requires a redressing of the government and household imbalances and a consequent increase in national savings.
