Best Answer

A decrease in tariffs lowers the price of imports, so more people will buy imports than goods produced inside the country. This won't change the capital account balance, which is determined by adding domestic assets owned by foreign people, businesses, or governments (like investments, land, stocks, bonds), and subtracting foreign assets owned by domestic people, businesses, or governments. A decrease in tariffs won't directly affect the value of assets held abroad or of foreign assets inside the country.
