Abstract:

The China-critical DPP party won both the presidency (taking office in May) and a majority in parliament in the elections on 16 January. The key task for the new government will be reinvigorating the economy after a weak 2015.The economy seems to have partially recovered in Q4 after a dismal performance in Q2 and Q3, thanks to a rebound in domestic demand. In contrast, merchandise trade has continued to disappoint. Exports in US$ terms dropped 14% on the year in Q4, while imports plunged by 16%, implying the weakest trade performance since 2009, in both value and volume terms. The central bank reacted to the continued weakness in external demand last month by cutting interest rates, and another reduction is quite likely over the coming months.Overall, the problems experienced during 2015 should fade as Chinese import demand stabilises and steady growth in the US and EU spurs world trade. Both exports and domestic demand should pick up in 2016; we expect GDP growth to average 2.2% this year after just 0.8% in 2015.
