WOOD Flash – Slovenia macro: smooth so far
July’s sentiment indices reported a slowdown across the board, but particularly among consumers. The economic confidence index is now at its five-year average, suggesting that the pace of economic expansion is moderating. The European Commission’s summer projections put real GDP growth at 5.4% this year and 1.0% in 2023E: in the past three months, the outlook for this year has improved, but the prospects for 2023E are weaker as a result of concerns due to energy supply shortages and falling real wage growth. PM Robert Golob is delivering on the measures outlined during the election campaign and has announced a cap on electricity prices for households, which should alleviate the inflation trajectory somewhat. Presidential and local elections due in the autumn appear to be on track to strengthen the newly-appointed government.
