Economic recovery is expected to strengthen, led by high government expenditure-particularly wages and capital expenditure. High fiscal and external surpluses are expected to persist. Inflation is projected to moderate slightly owing to a decline in global food inflation. The authorities are encouraged to continue to be vigilant regarding existing and emerging risks, enhance investment companies' (ICs) supervision, and develop the needed tools for ICs resolution.
