About This Report

  
Abstract:

Croatia recorded another solid quarterly performance in Q2, rising by 0.5% on the back of robust domestic demand. Fuelled by declining prices and rising employment, private consumption rose by 0.8%, while on the back of positive trends in both business and public capital spending, fixed investment again surprised on the upside, increasing by 2% on the quarter. We now forecast GDP growth of 1.8% in 2016. Next year, however, we forecast growth at a below-consensus 1.8% on the back of a rebound in inflation which will cause household spending growth to decelerate from 2.5% in 2016 to 1.7%, and a souring EU economic outlook as the impact of Brexit sets in.Meanwhile, snap elections held earlier this month yielded the same results as the November 2015 elections. Following a collapse of their government after only 6 months in power, the centre-right HDZ and the Bridge of Independent Parties are set to form another coalition. This time, the Prime Minister will likely be the newly elected leader of the HDZ, Andrej Plenkovic.
