BANKO MUNDIAL NO VE RECESIÓN EN LITUANIA

Economía lituana, que creció un 5,8 por ciento el año pasado, se ralentizará ligeramente en 2012, al 3,2 por ciento, lo que significa no es probable que el país se deslice en la segunda fase de la recesión, según los datos del  Banco Mundial.

Lithuanian economy, which expanded by an impressive 5.8 percent last year, will slow down somewhat in 2012, to 3.2 percent, which means that the country is not likely to slide into the second phase of recession, the World Bank said.

In its latest overview of the world’s economic prospects, the organisation said that Lithuania should rebound in 2013 to reach the annual economic growth of 3.5 percent.

The overall weaker economic prospects in Europe are seen as the main reason behind Lithuania’s slowdown as the country’s foreign trade is largely dependent on the European markets.

The country’s current account deficit is seen at 3.1 percent of the gross domestic product in 2012 and is likely to rise to 3.6 percent of GDP in 2013 after hitting a low of 2.3 in 2011, the World Bank said.
