周四发布的一份年中预算审查显示，纳米比亚将2026年经济增长预测从主要预算中预计的3.1%下调至2.3%，理由是今年上半年表现弱于预期。
Namibia cut its economic growth forecast for 2026 to 2.3% from 3.1% projected in its main budget, citing a weaker-than-expected performance in the first half of the year, a mid-year budget review showed on Thursday.
预计经济增长将逐步加快，2027年达到2.6%，2028年达到3.0%，2029年达到3.3%，这得益于矿业项目、坚挺的铀和黄金价格，以及随着通胀和利率下降而走强的消费者支出。财政部维持本财年预算赤字占国内生产总值（GDP）5.5%的预测，但公共债务目前预计将达到GDP的68.7%，高于2月预算中预计的65.2%。财政部长埃里卡·沙富达在一份声明中表示：“主要风险仍然是全球需求和商品价格低迷，尤其是钻石价格、高企的燃料价格、预计将出现的厄尔尼诺现象以及口蹄疫的暴发。”
Growth is expected to accelerate gradually to 2.6% in 2027, 3.0% in 2028 and 3.3% in 2029, supported by mining projects, firm uranium and gold prices and stronger consumer spending as inflation and interest rates ease The finance ministry stuck to its budget deficit forecast of 5.5% of gross domestic product (GDP) this fiscal year, but public debt is now forecast to reach 68.7% of GDP, up from 65.2% projected in the February budget "Key risks remain muted global demand and commodity prices, especially for diamonds, high fuel prices, the anticipated El Nino and the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease," Finance Minister Ericah Shafudah said in a statement
