IMAD Says Inflation Will be Curbed in 2003

Ljubljana, 30 October - If economic policy remains unchanged, inflation growth will be reduced to 5.9 percent in 2003, the government Institute for Macroeconomic Analyses and Development (IMAD) suggests in its autumn forecast, published on Wednesday. If economic policies are appropriately restrictive, however, annual inflation growth could be as low as 5.1 percent, IMAD says.
