          GDP is estimated to have increased by 3.8% in 2017, driven by strong growth in private consumption and investment. GDP is expected to grow by 2.9% in 2018 and is forecast to grow by 2.5-2.8% in the remaining years. The main drivers of growth will be domestic demand, mostly private consumption, while net exports will make a negative contribution to growth in the next few years.
