Exports free on board (f.o.b.) and Imports cost insurance freight (c.i.f.) are, in general, customs statistics reported under the general trade statistics according to the recommendations of the UN International Trade Statistics. For some countries Imports are reported as f.o.b. instead of c.i.f. which is generally accepted. When reporting Imports as f.o.b. you will have the effect of reducing the value of Imports by the amount of the cost of insurance and freight.
A higher than expected number should be taken as positive to the KRW, while a lower than expected number as negative.
The Trade Balance measures the difference in value between imported and exported goods and services over the reported period. A positive number indicates that more goods and services were exported than imported.
A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the KRW, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the KRW.

A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the PEN, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the PEN.

Monetary aggregates, known also as "money supply", is the quantity of currency available within the economy to purchase goods and services. Depending on the degree of liquidity chosen to define an asset as money, various monetary aggregates are distinguished: M0, M1, M2, M3, M4, etc. Not all of them are used by every country. Note that methodology of calculating money supply varies between countries. M2 is a monetary aggregate that includes all physical currency circulating in the economy (banknotes and coins), operational deposits in central bank, money in current accounts, saving accounts, money market deposits and small certificates of deposit. Excess money supply growth potentially can cause inflation and generate fears that the government may tighten money growth by allowing the interest rates to rise which in turn, lowers future prices. M2 = Currency in circulation + demand deposits (private sector) + time and savings deposits (private sector).
The Private Sector Credit is an important economic indicator that measures the total outstanding credit provided by financial institutions to businesses and households in Bahrain. This reflects the overall financial health of the private sector and is a key indicator of the level of credit available in the economy. It is a valuable tool for policymakers, investors, and analysts to assess the current economic climate and determine potential growth prospects.
A rise in private sector credit shows increased confidence and growth potential, as businesses and households are taking advantage of credit facilities to invest in capital goods, expand their operations, and boost consumer spending. This growth in credit is usually a sign of a healthy and expanding economy. On the other hand, a decline in credit indicates a lack of confidence, reduced investment, and potential stagnation in the economy. Therefore, monitoring changes in private sector credit can help identify prevailing economic trends and make informed decisions regarding investments and economic policies.
The S&P Global Manufacturing PMI is a monthly survey-based indicator that measures the performance of Australia’s manufacturing sector. It is derived from responses of purchasing managers on production, new orders, employment, supplier delivery times, and inventories.
A reading above 50 indicates expansion in manufacturing activity, while a reading below 50 signals contraction. Because it is timely and forward-looking, the index is closely watched by markets and policymakers as an early gauge of industrial conditions, business confidence, and potential shifts in economic growth and inflation pressures in Australia.
