Given fiscal consolidation and the expected growth slowdown in Slovenia’s most important EU trading partners, GDP will decline by 1% in 2012. A rebound of economic activity is expected only in 2013 since public investment will need time to recover and deleveraging of the enterprise sector is still going on. Household consumption will depend on improvements on the labour market. Slovenia’s economic recovery will largely hinge on the success or failure of the new government.
