Title
Hungary: Fiscal sustainability a priority.
Abstract
The article provides an economic outlook in Hungary for 2006-2007. The output growth of close to 4.25% is expected in 2005, increasing to 4.5% in 2006 before edging down a little in 2007. For 2006 the government aims for a substantial cut in the headline budget deficit but one-off factors, notably plans to take expenditure on motorway construction off budget, suggest that the underlying deficit will increase by about 1 percentage point of gross domestic product.
