Abstract/ Overview
The country’s economy picked up strongly in the second quarter of 2021, with real GDP growing 10.1 percent supported by easing of COVID-19 containment measures. Economic growth was projected at 6.0 percent in 2021 from the contraction of 0.3 percent in 2020. This translates to a growth of 5.9 percent in FY 2021/22 from 2.9 percent in FY 2020/21. The economic recovery reflects improved business environment after easing of COVID-19 restrictions and is supported by the prevailing stable macroeconomic environment, ongoing implementation of the strategic priorities of the Government under the “Big Four” Agenda and the implementation of the third Economic Stimulus Programme
