An increase in output levels is thus needed to reduce that surplus. c. positive slope because an increase in domestic interest rates leads to capital inflows causing a surplus in the financial account balance. An increase in output levels is thus needed to reduce that surplus. d. negative slope because an increase in domestic interest rates leads to capital outflows causing a deficit in the financial account balance.
