After decelerating to 2.0% year on year in Q2, our panelists forecast GDP growth to have been broadly stable in Q3. Available data paints a mixed picture. On the one hand, industrial production growth rebounded markedly in July–August from Q2, boosted by a bounce back in manufacturing output. Moreover, in July, merchandise exports contracted at a slower pace compared to Q2. On the other hand, private consumption was likely downbeat in Q3, as mounting inflation during the quarter could have pressured household budgets; retail sales grew at a slower pace than in Q2 in July–August. In other news, in mid-October, the government adopted the draft budget for 2025, which aims to reduce the fiscal deficit to 4.7% of GDP from close to 6% this year. This deficit reduction will come through higher taxes on companies and a hike in the VAT.
