high consumer debt, federal government spending, and high savings rates in Japan and China.
This is because of the USA spending more than they're earning, as well as foreign businesses earning more in the USA than US' businesses earn overseas.
The current account can be split into four different sectors: Balance on goods, Balance of services, Balance on income and Balance on current transfers.
I'm possibly taking a stab in the dark here, but since the US has such a strong dollar, then the USA could look quite inviting to save in. Since interest transmitted between countries is one of the factors towards the balance on income, then if lots of foreigners save in American banks, then the interest they gain will increase the deficit on the balance on income, thereby increasing the current account deficit. Of course this would only apply if the US dollar is increasing in value so yeah probably just ignore it.
Basically it is because China cheat by keeping their yen so low in value so their exports look promising. Which they do.

Impact of new economic policy on balance of payments in India?
our country has allways been a trade deficit country. As a result of new economic policy the net invisibles share of the current account has been increasing steadily which results in comparitively a better current account deficit (i.e current account deficit is reduced considerably). Similarly the net balance of capital account has allways been surplus due to the net FDI inflows, FIIs etc.. the deficit in current account has been almost overcome by the surplus in capital account and which resulted in a steady accumulation of foreign exchange reserves. At present our F E reserves are at US$301 billions. It shows the impact of new economic policy on our country's balance of payments.
