The International Monetary Fund predicts that the economy of Turkmenistan in 2018-2019 will grow faster than the economies of other Central Asian countries.
According to the IMF World Economic Outlook's October World Economy Review, real GDP growth in Turkmenistan in 2018 will be 6.2%, and in 2019 - 5.6%. At the same time, the economies of neighboring countries in the region will show lower growth rates.
As expected in the IMF, in 2018 the growth of the economies of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan will be 3.7% and 2.8%, respectively, and in 2019 - 3.1% and 4.5%.
The growth rate of the economy of Uzbekistan in 2018 and 2019 is expected to be at the level of 5%. The same IMF forecast also provides for GDP growth in Tajikistan during this period.
According to IMF forecasts, this year the average annual inflation in Turkmenistan will be 6.2%, and in the next 5.6%, in Kazakhstan 6.4% and 5.6%, respectively, in Kyrgyzstan 4.9% and 4.6%, in Uzbekistan - 19.2% and 14.9%, and in Tajikistan - 5.8% and 5.5%.
Over the years, the economy of Turkmenistan has been adversely affected by the global economic crisis and falling prices for fuel and energy resources. To minimize the effects of the crisis in Turkmenistan, programs are being implemented for import substitution and to increase exports. In addition, as part of industrialization, oil and gas processing enterprises have been built in the country, and a number of projects are in the implementation stage.
Experts believe that all these measures, coupled with the increase in oil prices and the increase in natural gas exports, will contribute to the growth rate of the Turkmen economy.
