Growth is projected at 7.8 percent in 2026, driven by services and industry. Inflation is expected to decline to 0.5 percent, as food deflation offsets higher energy and transport inflation. The fiscal deficit is projected at 3.1 percent of GDP, while public debt declines to 57.4 percent. Poverty (US$4.20 LMIC line) is expected to fall by 1.7 percentage points to 39.4 percent. Upside risks include stronger economic diversification, while commodity, security, and climate shocks pose downside risks.
