Bulgaria's economic expansion is expected to slow down to 3% in 2019, due to a drop in exports and deceleration in domestic consumption growth, according toFrance-based credit insurance company Euler Hermes.
According to the analysis the drop in exports is the main reason for an expected lower GDP growth rate of 3.2 percent for 2018, compared to previous years.
Consumption by households will be the main engine of Bulgaria's economic growth in 2019, but analysts are predicting a slowdown of domestic consumption. Salaries will continue to grow, though at half the rate compared to 2017. Investments are expected to glow by almost 8 percent, which, analysts say is a positive indication of recovery.
