Economic growth is projected to rise to around 3% in 2018 and 2019. Reduced corporate taxation, the historic peace agreement, better financing conditions and new infrastructure projects will boost investment. Private consumption will gain momentum as the labour market strengthens. Increasing activity and a stable exchange rate will put an end to the inflation slowdown. Inequalities and informality will remain key social challenges.
