Key developments and challenges

Output is projected to fall by 16 per cent in 2009 with the economic contraction likely to slow next year. Stabilisation will depend largely on a revival in bank lending to the real economy and on achieving a sustainable fiscal path. The implementation of the fiscal adjustment measures will prove to be painful for the economy, but they are necessary to maintain confidence in the economy and to attract new external credit.
