Reducing inflation and fiscal deficits will be a more difficult challenges. • Venezuela’s oil-dependent economy is in chaos, with huge deficits, hyperinflation, currency devaluation, and collapsing investment. • The region’s long-term challenges include inadequate infrastructure, restrictive business environments, and income inequality. © 2016 IHS.

Turkey 2015 Poland 2016 2017 Czech Republic 2018 Romania 2019–23 Hungary © 2016 IHS 48 US Economic Outlook / August 2016 Russia’s recession is beginning to subside • The drop in oil prices, economic and financial sanctions, and capital flight have led to a deep, protracted recession. • Real GDP fell 1.2% year on year in the first quarter. • Recent monthly data show declines in retail trade and fixed investment moderating, while industrial production has edged up. • The fallout from Brexit, however, will likely delay Russia’s recovery, since the European Union is its most important export market. • The central bank reduced its policy rate from 11.00% to 10.50% in midJune. As inflation moderates, further easing is expected. • Unfavorable demographics, outmoded manufacturing capacity, and an overburdened infrastructure will limit long-term growth. © 2016 IHS.

Consumer prices rose 6.10% year on year in July. • The goods and services tax (GST) is expected to take effect in late 2017. By reducing logistics costs and double taxation, the GST will improve manufacturing competitiveness and accelerate development of India’s e-commerce industry. • Other policy reforms will move forward slowly. Much remains to be done to open markets, upgrade infrastructure, and raise productivity. © 2016 IHS.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 64 US Economic Outlook / August 2016 The Middle East and North Africa • The drop in oil prices, regional political instability, and war with the Islamic State are restraining economic growth. • The region shifted from current-account surpluses to deficits in 2015; a return to surplus is expected in 2017 as oil prices recover. • Lower oil prices are hurting Iran, Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Libya, but are helping Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, and Tunisia. • Whereas Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE have substantial reserves, the finances of Iran, Libya, and Algeria are strained. • The end of sanctions is raising Iran’s oil exports and economic growth. • Egypt’s economy is expanding, but political and security risks remain. • Addressing job growth, economic diversification, and competitiveness will be critical to regional stability in the long run. © 2016 IHS.

The naira has plummeted following the end of peg to the US dollar. • Poor infrastructure (especially power generation), political instability, and corruption remain obstacles to economic development. • In the long run, expanding domestic markets, growing middle-class populations, and regional integration will support economic growth. • Several countries have strong growth prospects, including Kenya, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Liberia, Uganda, Ghana, and Tanzania. © 2016 IHS.
