| description |
In 2014, economic growth slowed as it
began to adjust to unsustainable economic imbalances. Real
GDP growth softened to 7 percent in the first 9 months, from
12.8 percent in the previous year. Despite strong mining
production growth of 26 percent, the growth of the
non-mining sector of the economy dropped to 2 percent in the
third quarter from 17.4 percent a year ago. Investment
sharply fell amidst declining FDI and weakening business
prospects. Consumption remains relatively strong but is also
gradually softening. The growth effect from stimulus
measures of the last year is also wearing off in 2014 as
large liquidity support from the central bank cannot be
sustained in the wake of high inflation and external
vulnerabilities. The current account deficit is narrowing
significantly to around 11 percent of GDP from almost 30
percent in the previous three years, due to import
contraction over 16 percent and stronger copper exports.
However, a significant external financing gap continues
amidst declining foreign investment, reducing internal
reserves to less than three months import cover. Inflation
remains in double digits after a strong credit boom in 2014
and continuous currency depreciation. Economic growth is
likely to continue to soften in 2015 as the economy remains
under pressure from the external imbalance and high
inflation. To help achieve the goal of the new
Solutions-oriented Government to overcome economic
challenges and build a sound economic management system, the
following policy actions are recommended to be considered in
the economic policy framework: (1) Consolidate the
off-budget spending made through the DBM into the budget;
(2) prepare a credible and realistic fiscal consolidation
plan to reduce the deficit; (3) monetary policy should be
tightened; (4) further quasi-fiscal activities need to be
avoided; and (5) the exchange rate should be left flexible. |
