Summary

Adverse external and domestic shocks led to a sharp slowdown in early 2023, but economic growth is gaining momentum thanks to a strong rebound in exports and expansionary fiscal and monetary policies. However, risks remain elevated, including because of a weak real estate sector and leveraged corporates. Headline inflation accelerated mostly owing to food prices. Despite a large current account surplus, the currency has been depreciating amidst record low domestic interest rates.
