Standard BOP structure structure consists of the following three accounts:

1. Current account shows flows of goods, services, primary income, and secondary income between residents and nonresidents. The current account balance reflects the balance of domestic savings and investment of the economy;
2. Capital account shows economic relationships for nonproduced nonfinancial assets and capital transfers;
3. Financial account shows transactions with financial assets and liabilities between residents and nonresidents and sources of financing for exports and imports of real resources.

In the analytic presentation of balance of payments, the items of balance of payments are grouped separately and show flows of valuable resources and all capital flows with exception of changes in international reserves. In this case, the negative value of the overall balance means the accumulation of international reserves whereas a positive value - their reduction.
