Economic research firm Kopint-Tárki has lowered its forecast for 2021 GDP growth to 6.1% from 6.8% in a projection released in the autumn, the firm’s chief executive Éva Palócz said.
Finance Minister Mihály Varga said last week that this year’s GDP growth was targeted at 6.0-6.5%.
Kopint-Tárki forecast average annual inflation at 5.5% this year, higher than 5.1% projected by the National Bank of Hungary (NBH).
