Summary:Uruguay's near-term outlook is positive, but with risks and policy challenges. Medium-term challenges include bolstering the economy's resilience to shocks and fostering productivity growth. Inflation is a priority and monetary policy cannot fight inflation alone; concerted efforts on other fronts are also necessary. Near-term fiscal policy could better support monetary policy.
