As the fiscal accounts are in balance, the soaring trade and current account deficits are a private sector phenomenon. So far they have been met by capital inflows of investment and private debt, but remain a serious concern as a sudden loss in confidence would lead to balance of payments pressure. 1, record 14, English, - loss%20in%20confidence

Alors que les comptes financiers sont équilibrés, l'aggravation notable du déficit des comptes courant et commercial est un phénomène du secteur privé. Jusqu'à présent, ce déficit a été épongé par l'entrée de capitaux provenant d'investissements et la dette privée, mais il continue d'inquiéter devant l'éventualité d'une perte de confiance qui exercerait des pressions sur la balance des paiements. 1, record 14, French, - perte%20de%20confiance

External current account surpluses have been painfully won by import cuts. Faced with a very high debt service ratio, too little foreign credit and low reserves, the government is still trying to avoid rescheduling. It is looking toward 1995 when oil sector investments are supposed to come on stream but that may not be enough. 1, record 15, English, - import%20cut

Dealers purchase gold on their own account and then sell it to an investor, or vice versa. They have a position in the gold market at all times. They may be "short" gold(they have a net debt in gold) or they may be "long" gold(they possess gold). A dealer makes his money on the "spread", the difference between the price at which he purchases gold and what he can sell it for. He usually does not charge a commission for the transactions you conduct through him. In North American, dealers operate primarily in gold bullion, gold certificates, and coinage. 2, record 18, English, - gold%20dealer
