Slovak Republic: 2021 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; Staff Report

Summary

The Slovak Republic faced the pandemic from a position of strength with fiscal space and comfortable banking sector buffers.

Output is expected to reach pre-crisis level before the end of 2021, but uncertainty is high.
