Macro - Country Economic Forecasts - Czech Republic
Description
We have upgraded our 2026 Czech GDP growth forecast by 0.2pp to 2.2%. In addition to the stronger carryover evident in the Q3 national accounts breakdown, the upgrade reflects the fiscal loosening planned by the new populist government. This will be driven mostly by current spending and will entail wider deficits due to higher borrowing. While we expect an initial boost to growth, higher borrowing costs will eventually crowd out private activity.
