The International Monetary Fund is expecting a slowdown in economic growth in this country in the medium-term. The fund mission in Bulgaria, led by Reza Baqir raised the country’s economic growth forecast to 3 percent, yet in the mid-term a growth slowdown is to be expected down to 2.5 percent due to insufficient structural reforms.
