Analysts: real wage growth may continue at a more moderate pace

The real wage growth may continue this year at a more moderate pace, compared to last year – market analysts told MTI, after the Central Statistical Office (KSH) released its report.

Horváth András, analyst of Takarékbank is expecting a more than 9 percent increase this year, due to the shortage of specialists and as a result of the further 8 and 12 percent wage increase, which means a real wage increase of 6 percent, with a 2.6 percent annual inflation, after last year’s 10.3 percent.
