IMF Balance of Payments Statistics (BOPS) dataset guide. Balance of Payments Statistics (BOPS) record the flow of goods, services and finance between an economy and the rest of the world.
As one of the primary functions of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is to prevent financial crises and assist countries in balance of payments difficulties, the collection of standardised, comparable balance of payments data is seen as a core task. The IMF BOPS database contains over 200 countries and regional groups. It contains over 100,000 quarterly and annual time series data. Where the data are available, the annual entries generally begin in 1967 and quarterly entries begin in 1970.
The period for which data are available varies from country to country, but most countries’ data extend from the mid-1970s to the present. The IMF BOPS at the UK Data Service is updated once a month. Main topics Transactions are generally between residents and non-residents.
