Serbian economic growth and inflation trends

Overview

The National Bank of Serbia (NBS) reported a slowdown in annual inflation to 1.9 percent in July, which is below the central target of 3 percent. This decline was linked to stabilized food prices and strong agricultural yields.

Simultaneously, Serbia’s real GDP growth accelerated to 3.6 percent year-on-year in the second quarter, driven largely by the service sector, including tourism and trade. Consequently, the NBS revised its annual growth projection upward from 3.0 percent to 3.2 percent. While the bank noted an improved external position, it remains cautious regarding interest rates due to global uncertainties and energy price fluctuations.
