SLOVAKIA
An unexpectedly high GDP growth of 3.6% in the first half of 2016 has resulted in Slovakia being one of the most rapidly growing countries in the region. While investments will drop in the course of the current year, growth has been backed by household consumption and net exports. For the years ahead, new capacities in the automotive industry will lend a fresh impetus to growth.
