Omschrijving

The 2019 growth forecast for the Pacific subregion has been raised from 3.5% to 4.2%, driven mainly by higher liquefied natural gas production in Papua New Guinea and increased construction expenditure in Samoa and Solomon Islands, as well as lower-than-projected economic decline in Nauru. However, project delays in Papua New Guinea, tepid growth in some economies, and slower recovery in others will likely moderate subregional growth to 2.6% in 2020.

Highlights:

Trade conflict continues to weigh down on the global economy.

The weak external environment translates into a softer 20192020 outlook for the Pacific through subdued exports, including from Fiji.
