Israel: 2022 Article IV Consultation-Press Release and Staff Report by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. European Dept. Pdf

The Israeli economy has weathered the COVID-19 crisis exceptionally well, but risks are high.

The outlook is positive but still subject to high uncertainty.

Israel by International Monetary Fund. European Dept. Pdf

This 2015 Article IV Consultation highlights that Israel’s economy has been doing well and near-term growth prospects are favorable. Following growth of 2.6 percent in 2014, the economy is expected to expand by about 2.5 percent in 2015 and 3–3.3 percent each year in the medium term. Employment creation has been remarkable—growing by 3.5 percent annually—and unemployment is at multi-decade lows. Inflation has been negative, but this trend reflects temporary external factors, not domestic weakness. Debt has declined to 67 percent of GDP from a peak of 94 percent of GDP in 2003 but is expected to increase for the first time since 2009, following the upward revisions to the deficit targets.

Israel by International Monetary Fund. European Dept. Pdf

Following a remarkable recovery from the pandemic anchored in strong fundamentals, the outlook is for growth to slow broadly in line with potential, as inflation falls within the targeted range by end-2024. However, the risk balance is tilted to the downside, reflecting, among other things, external risks and the continued uncertainty around the proposed judicial reform.

Canada by International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept. Pdf

Canada has come through the pandemic relatively well and, as a commodity exporter, has been hit less hard than many other countries have been by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Nonetheless, inflation is well above target, housing affordability is a major concern following a long boom that may now have peaked, and the pandemic remains a source of risk.

Paraguay: 2022 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; and Staff Report by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept. Pdf

After two consecutive years of GDP decline driven by external shocks, Paraguay’s economy rebounded in 2021. In 2019, drought and flooding reduced economic growth to -0.4 percent. In 2020, the impact of the pandemic on the secondary and tertiary sectors was partly compensated by a rebound of agriculture and an extensive emergency package, and GDP fell by only 0.8 percent. Growth rebounded to 4.2 percent in 2021, but heatwaves and a severe drought decelerated the recovery and have limited 2022 growth prospects, though a recovery is projected for 2023 and the medium-term. While the loss of agricultural export revenue is affecting Paraguay’s balance of payments in 2022, the external position in 2021 was stronger than the level implied by fundamentals and desirable policies.

Belize: 2022 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; and Staff Report by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept. Pdf

The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact on Belize in 2020, leading to a 16.7 percent contraction in real GDP and a rise in public debt to an unsustainable level of 133 percent of GDP. To address this situation, the government presented a medium-term plan to lower public debt to 85 percent of GDP in 2025 and 70 percent in 2030 by implementing fiscal consolidation, structural reforms, and debt restructuring. Significant progress towards restoring debt sustainability was made in 2021.

Mexico by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept. Pdf

Mexico’s economy has recovered more gradually from the pandemic than many peers. Even so, inflation has accelerated and has become more entrenched, as elsewhere. Domestic and external financial conditions tightened in the past year, while near-term growth prospects for the U.S., Mexico’s main trading partner, have weakened. The risks of capital outflows have risen. These new challenges compound Mexico’s long-standing problems of low growth and high inequality.

Israel by International Monetary Fund. European Dept. Pdf

Israel’s economy is growing well with inflation remaining low and the housing market cooling. Growth of about 31⁄2 percent in 2017 helped bring unemployment below four percent in early 2018, supporting robust wage rises averaging 31⁄4 percent. Yet, partly owing to the appreciation of the shekel, inflation remained below the 1–3 percent target range. House price increases slowed to below two percent as proposed tax measures deterred investor interest. Prospects for the next few years are for growth to remain around 31⁄2 percent with inflation rising gradually.

Israel by International Monetary Fund. European Dept. Pdf

Israel is enjoying strong economic growth, estimated at 4 percent in 2016, supported by strong domestic demand—partly due to high vehicle sales ahead of a tax increase—and an export rebound. Unemployment declined to 4.4 percent in Q4 2016 and wage increases have picked up. Nonetheless, inflation remained below the 1–3 percent target range of the Bank of Israel (BOI), reflecting external factors and government measures to reduce the cost of living. The BOI has held the policy rate at 0.1 percent since February 2015 and stated that monetary policy in Israel will remain accommodative for a considerable time. Strong revenues contained the fiscal deficit to 2.1 percent of GDP in 2016 and the public debt ratio declined to 62 percent of GDP.

A new administration took office in July with a blueprint to secure an inclusive, sustainable, and green recovery. While the economy remains fundamentally sound, the new administration will face three important challenges: (1) striking the right policy mix to secure the recovery and safeguard price stability; (2) building fiscal buffers as insurance against downside risks; and (3) raising the Philippine’s long-term growth.

Malaysia: 2022 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; Staff Report; and Statement by the Executive Director for Malaysia by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. Asia and Pacific Dept Pdf

Malaysia’s economy is showing signs of a gradual yet steady recovery thanks to the authorities’ impressive vaccine rollout, swift and coordinated implementation of multi-pronged support measures. The recovery nevertheless remains uneven and the output gap sizeable, with significant downside risks. Going forward, the authorities should calibrate macroeconomic policies to the pace of the recovery, while preserving policy space given pandemic-related uncertainties, and simultaneously accelerate structural reforms.

Republic of Azerbaijan: 2021 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; and Staff Report by International Monetary,International Monetary Fund. Middle East and Central Asia Dept. Pdf

Azerbaijan faced unprecedented challenges in 2020. The combined COVID-19 and oil price shocks pushed the economy into recession. A sizeable relief package helped cushion the economic impact from this shock, and the economy has started to recover. Yet the medium-term outlook remains subdued. The long-term fiscal position is unsustainable as oil resources are expected to run out by mid-century. The authorities have laid out strategic goals of accelerated yet sustainable socio-economic development over the next decade and are developing policy plans to that end.
