Autumn Forecast of Economic Trends 2019
Economic growth will slow to 2.8% this year and remain at a similar level in the next two. This year’s moderation will mainly reflect the slowdown of economic growth in Slovenia’s trading partners and deteriorated expectations until the end of the year. These factors will be reflected particularly in lower growth in gross capital formation and a considerable negative contribution of external…
