Our findings reverse the results for several countries, obtained with traditional unit-root tests and present a richer framework for evaluating the external solvency of an economy. Our results also provide some justification for the assumption the international current accounts are based on. ©2011 Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co. KG, Berlin/Boston Chortareas Georgios E.
