Analysis# Togo Current Account Balance
Togo's current account balance stands at -0.6% of GDP in 2026, reflecting a modest deficit that remains far removed from its all-time peak of 2.1% in 1984 and its severe low of -8.7% in 2013. Since 1980, the metric has deteriorated by 87.8 percentage points, indicating a structural shift toward persistent external imbalances over the past four decades.
The most dramatic period occurred between 2022 and 2023, when the deficit widened from -3.5% to -4.0% of GDP, marking the worst performance in over a decade. From that 2023 peak, however, Togo has demonstrated steady improvement, with the deficit narrowing by 3.4 percentage points through 2026. The trajectory suggests continued recovery, positioning the current account balance on a path toward near-equilibrium in the near term.
