Following a slowdown in late 2011, output growth is projected to pick up gradually, led by a rebound in exports as world trade gains momentum. Stronger exports will in turn boost domestic demand, helping to achieve output growth of 4% in 2013. With higher oil prices, the current account surplus is expected to fall to around 1½ per cent of GDP.
