FX.co ★ Spain’s Current Account Surplus Widens to €4.61B in March 2026

Spain’s current account surplus expanded in March 2026, signaling continued external strength in the euro area’s fourth-largest economy.

According to data updated on 29 May 2026, Spain’s current account balance rose to €4.61 billion in March 2026, up from €4.04 billion recorded in February 2026. The month-on-month increase points to a further improvement in the country’s balance of payments position over the early spring period.

While the underlying drivers were not detailed in the latest release, the sustained surplus suggests that Spain continued to benefit from favorable trends in trade in goods and services, investment income, or current transfers as the first quarter drew to a close. Market participants will watch upcoming data closely to assess whether this strengthening in the external account proves durable in the months ahead.
