The Slovak economy will reach a solid 3.2 per cent growth this year, driven by the investment benefiting from fast absorption of EU funds at the end of the second programming period. On the labor market, the largest amount of new jobs since the crisis will be created. The economy will grow at a similar pace next year and the labor market will continue in its dynamic growth. A sizeable positive risk not included in the baseline forecast is posed by the construction of the Jaguar Land Rover car manufacturing plant.
