The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has kept the projection of the growth of the gross domestic product of Serbia at 3% for 2017, according to the World Economic Outlook report, published today.

In the document, which was published right ahead of the joint session of the IMF and the World Bank in Washington, the Fund confirms the projection of the economic growth of Serbia of 3.5% in 2018.

According to the projections by the IMF experts, the inflation in Serbia will amount to 3.4% this year and 3% next year, whereas the current account balances will equal -4% this year and -3.9% in 2018.


The report also projects that the unemployment rate in Serbia would stand at 16% in 2017 and that it will drop to 15.6% in 2018.

The IMF has revised the projections of the growth of the world economy up by 0.1 percentage point to 3.6% and 3.7% in 2017 and 2018 respectively, noting that the upswing will probably be maintained in the next year as well.
