Weekly Review of Slovenian Business & Economy from 2 to 8 April

Ljubljana, 10 April - The European Commission and the Institute for Macroeconomic Analysis and Development released their spring economic forecasts, upgrading projections for Slovenia's inflation. Moreover, the Commission also upgraded its growth forecast for the country. Growth is what the shareholders of Kolinska and Droga had in mind as they unanimously backed a merger, thereby creating the biggest food company in Slovenia. Meanwhile, the shareholders of insurer Zavarovalnica Triglav and oil company Petrol appointed new supervisors in a move that consolidated government's position in the two state-owned companies.
