Hide / Show Abstract

Real GDP growth in 2007 is likely to remain close to the levels of 2005–06, before moderating in 2008 as the impulse from recent terms-of-trade improvements dissipates. Growth will still be primarily consumption-driven, but the contribution of fixed investment to growth should increase. Inflation is likely to fall further, owing mainly to shrinking external surpluses, further de-dollarisation and slower growth of utilities tariffs and other regulated prices.
