The flash estimate of International Trade in Goods for the 4th quarter of 2024 points to increases in exports and imports of, respectively, 4.1% and 5.1%, in nominal terms and compared to the same period of 2023. However, it is worth keeping in mind that these changes reflect, as in the previous quarter, increases in processing transactions, without change of ownership, although to a lesser extent.

Transactions of goods, therefore, increased for the third consecutive quarter, with year-on-year variations of 9.7% in exports and 7.0% in imports in the previous quarter.
