Economic growth will slow down in 2015 as weaker commodity prices reduce investment and exports, and public spending slows due to lower oil and mining revenues. Tighter household balance sheets and weaker employment growth will also slow domestic demand growth. Currency depreciation will temporarily raise headline inflation, but also contribute to growth by gradually boosting non-commodity exports. Stronger foreign demand and the easing of infrastructure bottlenecks will also contribute to an export-led recovery in 2016.
