Building on recent solid growth, real GDP is projected to accelerate through 2015, driven by rising exports and business investment. Exports will be supported by stronger foreign-market growth and recent currency depreciation. Business investment should strengthen with improved demand, to boost capacity and cost competitiveness. Activity should slow somewhat in 2016 as higher interest rates begin to bite, consumption growth slows to reduce household indebtedness and housing investment eases. With economic slack fully absorbed, inflation is projected to return to 2% after falling temporarily in 2015.
