Denmark’s current account surplus recorded a notable decline in February 2026, slipping to 25.100 billion from 35.400 billion in January 2026, according to data updated on 9 April 2026. The figures signal a significant month-on-month contraction in the country’s external balance.
The drop from January to February suggests a cooling in Denmark’s net earnings from trade in goods and services, income, and transfers with the rest of the world. While the surplus remains substantial, the February reading points to a weaker external position compared with the start of the year, a development that will be closely watched by markets and policymakers as they assess the resilience of Denmark’s external accounts going into the remainder of 2026.
