IMF Executive Board Concludes 2024 Article IV Consultation with Guatemala
August 2 , 2024
Guatemala has continued to maintain its solid track record of macroeconomic policies, with economic growth moderating to an estimated 3.5 percent in 2023 (4.2 percent in 2022) and CPI inflation and inflationary pressures decelerating from a 9.9 percent peak year-on-year in February 2023 to 3.6 percent in June 2024, within the monetary policy target (4 percent +/- 1 percentage point). In the election year 2023, the central government's primary fiscal balance closed in surplus, and the overall deficit was at 1.3 percent of GDP, below the three percent deficit approved under the amended 2023 budget. The current account surplus widened to 3.1 percent of GDP in 2023, driven by large remittances and an improved trade balance, despite lower exports and imports.
