The economy lost momentum in the second quarter, although overall it is
likely to post growth of around 3% this year. Growth should pick up even
further in the rest of the forecast period, driven by remittances, a gradual
improvement in the labour market, tourism and exports. Political risk will
remain elevated ahead of the 2018 election, which is having an impact on
investment spending, although it is unlikely significantly to derail medium-
term growth.
