The macroeconomic forecast: Rebound of economy The Czech Republic's economic output grew by 3.3% in 2021, with all components of domestic demand contributing positively, most notably the change in inventories and household consumption. The outcome of 2022 will be affected by the effects of geopolitical development and a change in the setting of international trade relations. Amid uncertainty the full-year growth rate of the Czech economy should slow to 1.2%, driven by government and private sector investment and consumption. Oil, electricity, and gas prices should contribute significantly to the exceptionally strong consumer price growth. Higher costs to firms will then be reflected in the prices of goods and services. Disruptions in supply chains and wage costs in the private sector will also be pro-inflationary. However, the increase in monetary policy rates will weaken domestic demand pressures and contribute to the appreciation of the koruna against the euro, which will have an anti-inflationary effect.
