Sumário
Portugal achieved a remarkable recovery from the shocks that hit the global economy since the covid pandemic and seems headed for a soft landing. However, subdued productivity growth, population aging, and low investment remain key constraints to better living standards. The team in charge of Portugal at the IMF’s European Department will present its latest analysis of the economy and recommendations, focusing on fiscal policy, the financial sector, and reforms to increase productivity and growth prospects. Presenters will also be available for Q&As on recruitment programs at the IMF.
