The GKI expects accelerating consumption and stagnation in investment
According to the forecast of the GKI Gazdaságkutató Zrt. (GKI Economic Research Co.), the growth was exceptionally fast temporarily in 2014: 3.6 percent.
However the Hungarian economy was not able to stay on the track providing long-term convergence, compared to the region. This year's outlooks predict a slower growth of around 2 percent. The investments are expected to stagnate, however, the consumption and export surplus can contribute to the economic growth with a higher degree, compared to last year.
