The Portuguese economy is expected to grow in a sustained manner until 2025 and more than the euro area economy
Exports and investment are projected to drive once again economic growth.
The Portuguese economy will continue to grow more than the euro area economy, benefiting from EU fund inflows and tourism.
The number of employed individuals is expected to remain high.
Recent financial market tensions make the economic outlook more uncertain.
Price increases are still expected, but at a slower pace and closer to 2% in 2025
Price increases are expected to ease somewhat during 2023, particularly in energy and food prices.
Increases in the price of most goods and services are projected to be even more restrained in 2024 and 2025.
The rise in interest rates will help curb price increases and thus protect households’ purchasing power.
