The economic situation in Bulgaria calmed down at the end of 2023 after the uncertainty during the year, caused by the political situation and the lack of a budget until the end of July. This is what Lachezar Bogdanov, Chief Economist at the Institute for Market Economy, has told BNR’s Radio Sofia.
According to him, this country is experiencing higher growth than its leading partners in the Eurozone. However, as a country on the periphery, Bulgaria needs to catch up with developed markets. Bogdanov also said that there was some "revival" in investments in the country, but the private sector could no longer rely on cheap labor.
