Fundamentals of Serbian economy stable, solid

Belgrade/Washington, 24 April 2025

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Siniša Mali stated today in Washington that the fundamentals of the Serbian economy, despite international tensions and the situation with US tariffs in the world, as well as blockades in our country, remain stable and solid.

After meetings with representatives of the rating agency Standard and Poor’s, which last year awarded Serbia an investment grade rating, as well as with representatives of the agencies Fitch Ratings and Moody’s, Mali said that our country will continue on the path of macroeconomic stability.

He told the representatives of the rating agencies to the financial and economic parameters and results of Serbia, emphasizing that Serbia, with 3.5% of the projected growth by the IMF this year, will continue to be among the top three economies in Europe with the highest growth.

The First Deputy Prime Minister pointed out that our economy is stable, and this is confirmed by the fact that for the first time in history we have an investment credit rating, but we still have to see how we will minimize the negative impact of the protests and everything else we have had in the last few months.

Mali also met today with IMF Deputy Managing Director Bo Li, and the meeting was also attended by NBS Governor Jorgovanka Tabaković.

He will also meet with World Bank Vice President for Europe and Central Asia Antonella Bassani, and during his stay in Washington he will also attend a meeting of the Constituency, while on Friday he will meet with investors, to whom he will present Serbia’s investment potential.
