Summary:

The weak external environment continues to depress growth. Tourism and fisheries-the Maldives’ economic lifelines-are slowly recovering, but have not yet regained the ground lost in 200 1. After over two decades of uninterrupted gains, per capita income likely remained flat in 2002. The pass-through from last year’s devaluation has been contained and inflation is not a policy concern.
