How does the capital account relate to the current account and the trade balance in the context of international trade and the savings-investment balance?

The capital account and the current account are two important parts of a country's balance of payments, which tracks all economic transactions with other countries. The current account includes trade balance, which is the difference between what a country sells to others (exports) and what it buys (imports). If a country exports more than it imports, it has a trade surplus, and this can lead to an increase in savings, as money flows into the country. On the other hand, the capital account records investments coming in and going out of the country, such as foreign investments or loans. For example, if a country has a trade deficit (imports exceed exports), it may need to attract foreign investments to balance its accounts, showing how interlinked these accounts are in understanding a country's economic health.
