Growth will slow to around 3% in the short run but may accelerate somewhat beyond that, depending primarily on the resumptions of ambitious government investments. Politically, the opposition is yet to find a way to challenge the governing coalition, though the democratic deficit is taking its toll on internal and external credibility. Montenegro is a front-runner in EU integration, though the prospects of accession are not rosy as the EU does not appear to be interested in enlargement any time soon.
