Public Debt in Serbia
Serbia - Public Debt
While GDP growth cooled in the third quarter of 2018 owing to a relatively broad-based softening, the economy continued to expand solidly. Rising disposable income and sustained remittance inflows continue to support private consumption. Soaring imports, meanwhile, were testament to the strong domestic economy although led to a drag on headline growth, despite stronger exports. Turning to more recent developments, on 14 December S&P Global Ratings affirmed its BB credit rating for Serbia and upgraded the outlook to positive, citing a solid economic outlook, fiscal prudence and effective monetary policy as key factors behind its decision. However, on a gloomier note, Kosovo raised tariffs on a second set of Serbian imports on 28 December, after slapping 100% tariffs on all locally-produced Serbian goods in late November. Mounting trade tensions will likely translate into a greater drag on the external sector and could lead to a further worsening of relations between the two countries.Serbia - Public Debt Data
