BULGARIA
Driven by a combination of positive domestic and external factors, GDP growth in 2015 outperformed expectations. The economy, however, is mired in chronic structural problems that policy-makers have systematically neglected. While GDP is expected to continue growing at a rate of 2% to 3% per annum
over the short term, the absence of policy reforms may lead to an accumulation of macroeconomic imbalances.
