The Hungarian economy is proceeding on a path indicated in the September 2017 forecast of GKI. Economic growth accelerates due to the surge in EU transfers as well as the increase in consumption driven by steadily rising wages due to the forthcoming elections and a shortage of labour. After 2.2 per cent in 2016, GDP will grow by 3.8 per cent both in 2017 and 2018. Although this rate is well above the EU average, it is one of the lowest in the CEE region, and no major changes can be expected in 2018 in this regard.
