Recently CHF Trade Balance report was published which showed an increase to 3.51B from the previous figure of 2.76B which was expected to be at 2.88B. As the Trade Balance is the figure of export and import whereas an increased figure denotes to increase in export in comparison to importing which helps to develop the economy.
