Summary:

Macroeconomic imbalances built during the pandemic have been largely resolved, supported by strong policy responses. Inequality has declined somewhat but remains high. Weak investment and potential growth are constraining income convergence to advanced economies. Policy priorities have shifted toward making the economy more dynamic, inclusive, and greener, but the government is struggling to pass reforms in a fragmented parliament. The December referendum which rejected the draft constitution has reduced lingering uncertainty by bringing the process to a close for the coming years.
