3 Main Characteristics of the Czech Economy Small, open economy, strongly dependent on foreign trade. Strong trade and ownership links with EU. Big portion of manufacturing sector (24% GDP). Long term real convergence with the developed countries, in 2007 GDP per capita 83% of the EU average, after recent recessions drop to 80 % in Low inflation. The relatively low rate of unemployment, one of the lowest in the EU. The current account deficit (-1.4% of GDP in 2013) is reduced due to the growing trade surplus. Fiscal consolidation: reduction in the public deficit to 1.4% of GDP and slowing the growth of government debt to 46% of GDP.

4 Gross Domestic Product Peak in the first quarter 2006 (7.6% growth). During 2009, the Czech economy fell in the deepest recession in its recent history due to global crisis. GDP declined by 4.4% in 2009, signs of recovery occurred in the first half of Close relationship between domestic economy and external demand behind this development. The economy declined by 0.9% in 2012 and by 0,9% in 2013 (y-o-y change data). In 2014 growth by 2.9 % in the first quarter and 2,7 % in the second quarter (y-o-y change data). The outlook for this year predicts about 2.0% GDP growth.

10 BALANCE OF PAYMENTS Initially current account deficit caused by a balance of trade deficit compensated by inflow of foreign capital. Pro-export effect of investment helped the balance of trade to become positive (since 2005). But the current account as a whole remained in red numbers due to negative income balance (includes the outflow of dividends and reinvested earnings). High share of FDI is being financed from reinvested earnings from previous investments. On the other hand inflow of foreign capital is one of the major causes of the raise of external debt.
