Key economic findings (2010)
- Economic growth is estimated to have moderated further in 2010 to about 5 percent, reflecting slower growth in both the oil and non-oil sectors.
- The overall commitment fiscal deficit for 2010 is now estimated at 2.7 percent of GDP, about 0.6 percentage point of GDP below the program target.
- Monetary policy was expansionary in the first half of 2010, but was subsequently tightened.
- The current account deficit narrowed during the first three quarters of 2010 largely driven by an increase in oil exports.
