Economic publications

The Annual Report presents a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the Portuguese economy. The Report presents a detailed analysis of the developments of the Portuguese economy during the year, from a structural perspective and in comparison with other economies, with a special focus on the implications for the operation of the Portuguese economy arising from participation in the euro area. This part of the Report includes a set of Supplementary Tables covering relevant information for a longer period (in general 10 years) and with a more detailed breakdown than the main text.

The Financial Stability Report evaluates emerging risks in the Portuguese markets and financial system, with a special focus on the banking system. The analysis involves the identification of adverse shocks and their probability of occurrence, as well as an evaluation of the consequences of such shocks for the stability of the financial system. The identification of risks implies not only an aggregate analysis of the indicators but also, where possible, of its distribution.
The analysis covers in particular the institutions subject to supervision by Banco de Portugal and is divided into two Parts: the first one covers, identifies and evaluates the major risks associated with the activity of financial institutions; the second Part contains articles signed by Banco de Portugal economists, on financial stability subjects.

The Economic Bulletin provides regular commentary on the Portuguese economy, as well as articles by Banco de Portugal economists. The spring issue of the Bulletin presents a signed article focusing on a relevant subject for the Portuguese economy, as well as an update of the macroeconomic projections of Banco de Portugal.
The summer issue of the Bulletin publishes detailed projections of Banco de Portugal for the Portuguese economy relative to the year in course and the subsequent year.
The autumn Economic Bulletin will no longer feature the customary article updating the Bank's macroeconomic forecasts. Indeed, under the Eurosystem's projection exercise rules, it is not possible to include the information in the State Budget in the forecasts, which substantially affects the quality and relevance of the forecast.
Finally, the winter Economic Bulletin, presents detailed forecasts for the following two years.
