The International Monetary Fund (IMF) said on June 26 that exports, a key driver for the economy, could weaken if global growth disappoints, global geopolitical tensions persist, or trade disputes intensify.
“Domestically, persistent weakness in the real estate sector and corporate bond market could weigh more than expected on banks’ ability to expand credit”, “Given easy monetary conditions, if exchange rate pressures were to persist for longer, it could lead to a larger pass-through to domestic inflation,” the IMF said.
Increasing productivity, further investing in human and physical capital, and incentivising private investment in renewable energy is key to the country, according to the IMF./.
