B. Low domestic investment
C. Low domestic consumption
D. Reduced export competitiveness


参考答案:  A


本题详细解析:

A

$\underset{‾}{\text{Explanation}}$:
If a country has a persistent current account surplus, its exports are greater than its imports. Thus, the demand for currency exceeds its supply, leading to its appreciation.

These answer options indicate the consequences of a persistent current account surplus.

• Option B: A persistent current account surplus implies a financial account deficit, implying that the currency is leaving the country and hence low domestic investment.
• Option C: A persistent current account surplus implies higher exports and hence a low level of domestic consumption.
• Option D: A current account surplus leads to an appreciation of the currency, making the exports costly and reducing competitiveness.
