GDP growth is likely to decelerate in 2008 -- mostly reflecting the lagged effects of a weakening global economic environment and euro appreciation -- before picking up at the end of the year as the world economy recovers. Headline inflation is projected to remain above 2% for most of the projection period, reflecting the pass-through effects of high energy and food prices.
