Montenegro suffered comfortable CESEE’s deepest contraction in economic activity in 2020, with GDP shrinking by 15.2% on the back of a steep decline in tourism revenue and the country’s limited fiscal cushion. In 2021, we expect economic recovery to be somewhat inhibited, with the government’s COVID-19 restrictions from 2020 radiating well into 2021. We still expect GDP to grow by 6.5%, boosted by tourism and remittances.
