Growth is projected to pick up to about 3%, as lower interest rates, stronger infrastructure spending, lower corporate taxes and higher oil prices all boost investment. Private consumption will also strengthen, as falling inflation lifts real wages. Exports will improve on the back of a stronger outlook for trading partners. Unemployment will start to fall. Social indicators are improving, but informality and inequality remain high.
