Economic growth is projected to edge down to 1.7% by 2021. Consumption growth will soften due to lower wage growth. Export growth will be sustained by competitiveness gains despite challenging external conditions. The absorption of EU structural funds will sustain investment. Inflation is expected to remain low. Unemployment is projected to decline slightly.
