With the GDP growth of 2.1% in Q3 2022 and our expectations for an even harder Q4, due to the ongoing energy crisis and elevated prices, we have downgraded our full year 2022 real GDP growth forecast to 2.7%, from 3.5% previously. At the moment we are keeping our GDP growth projection of 2.9% in 2023 due to the relatively high inflation and energy crunch in the first part of the year. |
