Economic Forecast Summary (November 2022)

Economic Outlook Note - Israel

GDP growth is projected to moderate from a strong 6.3% in 2022 to 2.8% in 2023 and 3.4% in 2024. The global slowdown is set to weaken demand from Israel’s trading partners. Elevated inflation will slow disposable income and private consumption. Increasing interest rates and lower stock market valuations will weigh on investment. Growth is projected to pick up towards its potential rate in 2024 as inflation abates.
