Despite the anticipated decline in oil prices, which will have an adverse impact on exports, economic growth is expected to accelerate over the forecast period due to domestic demand factors. Investments in infrastructure, in particular transport and logistics, will contribute positively to growth in the coming years. Consumption is likely to start recovering in 2023, although inflation is expected to take longer to contain, amid fiscal stimulus and the recent increase in regulated fuel prices.
