IMF United Kingdom- 2014 Article IV Consultation Concluding Statement of the Mission

June 6, 2014--1. The economy has rebounded strongly and growth is becoming more balanced. Growth has accelerated since the second half of 2013, and leading indicators suggest that the recovery has momentum. Although household expenditures played the driving role in the early stages of the recovery, business investment has picked up more recently. Net exports remain subdued.

2. Inflation has fallen rapidly. Despite lackluster productivity growth and the recent rebound in demand, inflation has dropped to just below the Bank of England's 2 percent target, owing to the fading impact of administered price increases, lower import prices, and weak growth in wages and margins.

3. Good macroeconomic performance is expected to persist. Real GDP growth is projected to remain strong this year, before gradually returning to trend rates, driven by further rebalancing toward business investment and a gradual recovery in productivity. Inflation is expected to revert to target.
