Key developments and challenges
The economy is likely to fall into recession this year as a result of a sharp drop in industrial output and exports. A more expansionary policy stance, reflecting the government’s anti-crisis measures and the need to modernise the country’s infrastructure, will result in a shift from modest fiscal deficits or surpluses of earlier years to higher deficits in the near future. Continued progress in the EU accession process is an important condition for the realisation of FYR Macedonia’s medium-term growth potential.

Our strategy in FYR Macedonia
The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYR Macedonia) continues to meet the conditions specified in Article 1 of the Agreement Establishing the Bank.
FYR Macedonia has made further progress on key reforms, geared towards integration into the EU. After FYR Macedonia acquired formal status of an EU candidate country in December 2005 the European Commission recommended in October 2009 to open EU accession negotiations. The implementation of the Ohrid Framework Agreement, which ended the armed conflict in 2001, continues to support political stability in the country, highlighted by the smooth functioning of the current multi-ethnic governing coalition. Political stability has further increased due to the peaceful and orderly conduct of the latest elections in March and April 2009. However, the country still faces significant institutional and economic pre-accession reform challenges. The Bank aims to assist it in meeting these challenges successfully over the Strategy period.
